Hi Everyone,
Next release in this development cycle. Been a little bit since our last release, we’ve been focused on some back end stuff around how we do releases. But still got a good amount of bug fixes and a few new things in. Over the next few months things will continue to be a little slow as we prepare for the next stable and start thinking about the next Dev cycle. In the meantime enjoy the release.
**FOR MAC USERS**There isn't a Mac release and you'll have to use the Unix release. We are having issues with the Gradle packaging scripts and various security settings in MacOS. We are working on the issue and have no ETA for a fix.
Megamek.We added the partial implementation of trailers. Princess is learning how to shoot artillery, TAG, Unjam weapons and flip arms. We’ve also added the Saxarba tileset which is amazing looking tileset.
MegaMekLab.Lots of bug fixes and some improvements to printing Record sheets.
MekHQ.Lots of bug fixes and some Quality of life, best to look at the lists below.
Also a reminder to drop into the
Slack channel to meet other players and harass the devs that drop in and out.
As a reminder when moving between versions:
1) Make backups of your campaigns and customs.
2) Always treat each release as a stand alone release and only copy your data forward from older versions.
