Release Wesnoth 1.8.6

[ivanovic]

Wesnoth 1.8.6 is out now!


This is a bugfixing release for the 1.8.x series. It fixes several outstanding bugs and updates many translations. The stable package is meant to be used as a stable and rather balanced version of the game. Each version of the 1.8 branch is compatible to each other. Version 1.8.6 is the latest stable version. This version is recommended for most players since the 1.8 online multiplayer community is very large and user-made campaign server has a robust content selection.


If you find any issues with this release, please report them at http://bugs.wesnoth.org.


Some things for you to keep in mind:


* Savegames from each 1.8.x version should be compatible with this release. Savegames from 1.9.x do not work though.


* I added the same button mapping for the gaming buttons that is already known from the 1.9.x series to this 1.8.x release, too. This is the new button mapping:

A - recruit

Y - recall

X - next unit

B - undo

In general Wesnoth is identical on your Pandora and on your normal desktop system. That means that you can of course move savegames between the two and stuff like this. The same applies for multiplayer games with Windows, OSX and Linux users. I hope that you will enjoy this new release.
