The Battle for Wesnoth v1.15.5 Release Notes

    • Fix: when using the "system default language", add-ons' titles and descriptions were always shown in English (PR #5109) ### Campaigns
    • Northern Rebirth:
      • Removed the campaign's evil branch. Not a player-visible change, as there was no way to access this branch.
    • Secrets of the Ancients:
      • Use new gui2 widgets API in the custom zombie-recruitment dialog
    • Under the Burning Suns:
      • Quenoth Elves now appear as a separate group in the help pages
      • Fixed ghost spawning code in S02 (this means more ghosts will spawn)
    • World Conquest:
      • Clean-up of spelling, grammar and other issues in translatable strings.
      • use new lua gui2 api in WC mapgen settings
    • Mass convert of *^Uf terrain for SP.
      • Updates DW, DM, DiD, HttT, LoW, SotA, THoT and TSG ### Language and i18n
    • Updated translations: British English, Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Esperanto, French, Hungarian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Spanish, Turkish ### Multiplayer
    • A New Land:
      • Peasants can harvest mushrooms (a bug introduced in 1.15.4 was noticed and fixed in PR #5137) ### Terrain
    • Made single-hex mushrooms smaller (PR #5136) ### User interface
    • Help browser: fix inconsistent behavior for single-clicks opening and closing sections (PR #5110)
    • Added [race]help_taxonomy=, creating links between the per-race topic pages. ### Miscellaneous and bug fixes
    • Minimum required version of OS X is now OS X 10.11 .
    • The "loyal" trait is now displayed in the help browser, even though no normal unit has it.
    • The player can recruit even if their recruit list includes an unknown unit type. This will now show an error dialog and then the recruitment dialog with the known units.
    • Fix [micro_ai] when called from lua (issue #5134)
    • Fix [load_resource] not marking an add-on as used for the "ignore global tags set by add-ons that are not used" feature. ### Packaging
    • macOS package distributed through SourceForge is now a UDIF lzfse-compressed image. The image size may be slightly larger but opening and copying from this image is much faster.
    • Another fix if the credits (including all add-ons) are extremely long. There are still known issues with this.
