This new release in the 1.15.x development series sees various changes and improvements in various areas.
As this is a development version, we would like to remind everyone how the testing and feedback process works for these:
- If you download Wesnoth stand-alone, make sure to keep the latest stable release around in case the game breaks and you find yourself unable to get your daily fix of Wesnoth.
- Playtest the game, and make sure to report any bugs you find! Even obvious bugs can be left unfixed if everyone assumes someone else has already reported it.
- For any bugs found, or to request new features to be added, check out bug tracker here. First though, please read our instructions for reporting bugs on the wiki, which will give your bug report or feature request the best chance of being addressed.
- Near the end of the release notes below you will find a list of the most important bugs known at the time of the release. Some items are due to be fixed in future releases of the 1.15.x series, but for others we depend on contributed patches from volunteer coders like you!

General- Unit graphics
The Rock Scorpion and Scarab have new attack animations.
The Piglet and Woodland Boar have new sprites.
The Piglet has a portrait.
The Horse and Sea Horse units have been added.
- Add-on tags
The details panel in the in-game add-ons manager now shows the list of tags in each add-on as well as allows filtering based on tags. - Multiplayer game notifications
Notifications for new games created when on the multiplayer server will now only be shown for games visible in the current game list. This means you will no longer get notifications for games not shown due to being filtered.
- Crash when showing the credits
Wesnoth will no longer crash when showing the full game credits. - Dark Forecast enemy movement
Enemy units in Dark Forecast are no longer able to move over impassable terrain.
This information applies to all 1.15.x development releases unless specified otherwise.
General
General
- The minimum required version of GCC is now 7.
- Wesnoth no longer depends on SDL_ttf 2.0 for building and the option to use FriBidi for right-to-left (RTL) text rendering has been removed in favor of using Pango. It is worth noting that RTL language support in general is currently broken (#5600), and there are no active RTL language translations either.
- Windows 7 is now the minimum supported version.
- Wesnoth now supports only the 64-bit versions of Windows.
- Wesnoth now uses the app sandboxing feature, which means there is a new location for saves. All saves will be migrated during first launch automatically. For info about backwards compatibility see here.
- Starting with 1.15.5, the minimum required version of macOS is 10.11, and the recommended version is 10.14.
General issues:
- OneDrive can interfere with Wesnoth’s user config/data directory set-up, leading to all kinds of different manifestations of the issue. There’s no fix available yet. The recommendation for the time being is to avoid syncing the Wesnoth user directory with OneDrive.
- Preprocessor errors corrupt cache (issue #1924). If this happens you have to wipe your cache. That can be done in Preferences → Cache.

The multiplayer and add-ons servers for this development series are up and running. Because development versions are a moving target, the development multiplayer server only accepts the latest version in the series. Add-ons may break due to changes to the WML and Lua APIs throughout development series — any problems involving them should be reported to the respective add-on maintainers.If you find any bugs, do not hesitate to report them, but please read the instructions on how to report bugs first! As bug reports in the forums tend to be forgotten, you will get better results using our bug tracker.

Hi.
I just want to ask how long it usually takes for android version to get the update?

Re: Wesnoth 1.15.13
You would need to ask the Android port maintainer about that, though I believe the Android versions sticks with stable releases instead of using the development releases.
If it's a lua error then it should be reported on github. If it's a deprecation warning, then the add-on would need to be updated.

Re: Wesnoth 1.15.13
Here's a quick fix for people experiencing this issue: edit the file data/lua/core/mathx.lua to add the following line at the end:
Proper fix will follow in the next release.
Code: Select all
wesnoth.random = mathx.random
Re: Wesnoth 1.15.13
That fixes it.
Thank you.

Re: Wesnoth 1.15.13
For completeness though,
wesnoth.random
has been deprecated in favor of mathx.random
, so with the next release there will just be deprecation warnings instead of errors.99 little bugs in the code, 99 little bugs

Well, yes. There is a new special notes system. All of these are now...deprecated. Just remove them like I did for my add-ons.vghetto wrote: ↑June 21st, 2021, 2:19 pm sigh. starting WF on 1.15.14 is giving the following errors. They are appearing in-game, not just the console.Code: Select all

{NOTE_*}
the new system though?Code: Select all
#deprecated 4 Use [special_note]note= tags instead to apply special notes, or use the {NOTE_*} macros (note the singular).
Code: Select all
# SPECIAL_NOTES_* are the deprecated versions that provide the strings.
# INTERNAL:SPECIAL_NOTES_* contain the strings shared by deprecated and non-deprecated macros. Do not use them directly.
# NOTE_* are the new versions that provide an entire tag.
# For now, the new are defined in terms of the old, but when adding new special notes,
# only a NOTE_* form should be added.

Re: Wesnoth 1.15.13
The comment needs to be updated in that case.
Edit: Oops, I seem to have uploaded to 1.16 :/
What's the 1.15 port?
