allow.
* prevent some negative/nonsense values in direct WML unit modifications
* Renamed the advanceto key in [unit_type] to advances_to in order to be
consistent with its own and [unit]'s internals.

4p Morituri, The Wilderlands, Waterloo Sunset
* Music and sound effects:
* Engine automatically plays special music on defeat or victory; default
lists from which an option is randomly chosen at runtime are provided as
the default_victory_music and default_defeat_music attributes in
[game_config] node; this may be overriden per-scenario using the
victory_music and/or defeat_music attributes on its code - it can also
be overriden in a [endlevel] block by providing a music= attribute with
the desired list (feature request #11203).
* Python AI:
* Added ai_init.py and ai_launcher.py to make it easier to customize
AI environment and startup. Both are used by the new embedded python
implementation.
* reversed builtin is now allowed. This allows for random.shuffle to be

Location Filter to match locations.
* Miscellaneous and bug fixes:
* Add some gcc-4.3.0 compilation fixes (patch #1083)
* Added a MSVC 9 project file and some fixes for that compiler (patch #1093)

* Fix an old pathfinding bug causing an inconsistency between the path used
and the one showed to others players. It was only a visual error, but
sometimes caused to see a enemy pass through your invisible units (or in
their ZoC). Now all players see the same real path. Also valid for replay.

* Fix few broken hyperlinks in help (and some were working in english only)
* Fix a regression about not working 'unit description' with hide_help=yes
* Python AI:
* get_variable now allows a default value to be passed to the call. If the
key is not found, the default value is returned. This is fully backward
compatible.
* set_variable exception handling has been fixed to return an exception in
the current call frame.
* Many wesnoth module functions now release the python GIL when it is both
safe to do so and the function call takes long enough where it also
makes sense. More changes coming.

script is invoked. This variable indicates if it is running inside of
a restricted python environment or not.
* A new class of unrestricted scripts are now listed. Previously only
scripts which have #!WPY at the top are allowed. If only allow safe python
scripts is disabled, scripts which start with #!UNSAFE_WPY are also shown
to users. This allows AI authors to specifically target either a
restricted or unrestricted environment.

These include; '__call__', '__copy__', '__deepcopy__', '__name__',
'__repr__' and '__str__', in addition to the old __init__ method.
* ValueError can now be caught.
* Added a new AI, bruteforce_unsafe.py, which uses both function caching
(memoize pattern) and psyco to speed execution. It uses the new UNSAFE_WPY
tag and is not selectable unless "Only Run Safe Python AIs" is disabled.
This version of bruteforce runs 1x-14x FASTER than the stock python AI;
*heavily* dependent on the map and number of units involved.
* Per the python API documentation, many functions now return boolean values
rather than ints. Minor modernization effort to use new C-API macros
provided via python 2.4+. This change is fully backward compatible for
scripts which properly treat the return value as a boolean.
* Initial wail directory checkin. It's only a teaser at this point. ;)
* bruteforce_wail.py has been added - showing how easy it is to move a
well written bot from the wesnoth module to the wail module.
* WML engine:
* When examining stored units, now the attacks, max_hitpoints, max_moves,
and max_experience are the "real" values and can also be modified.
* new attribute count= for [have_unit] and [have_location] conditionals
* new mode "insert" for [set_variables]
* max_attacks in [unit] now also works for values bigger than 1
* the "zoc" key works for [unit_type] too, and for [unit] accepts other
boolean values than 1 and 0 (bug #11889).
* new effect apply_to=type to transform the unit to a different type
* remove redundant unit.value (use unit.cost instead)
* preserve unit.role in next scenario (bugs #3697, #4124, and #11329)
* fix various problems with [set_variables] (bugs #11980 and #11981)
* Add a new key "image" in [faction], used as icon in faction selection.
The old hack consisting to add the image's url in the faction's name is
still supported but doesn't have the new team coloring.
* miscellaneous and bug fixes:
* Fixed droiding not to make wesnoth think player is observer (bug: #9675)
* Fixed statitics not add turn data from previus scenarios (bug: #11719)
* Fixed manager to initialize before gamestate in playcontroller (bug: 11935)

* new tag [filter_radius] to allow greater control over radius expansion
when using the standard location filter
* fix a bug where containers could only be stored at the top-level
* fix a bug where both x and y had to be specified in location filters
* better handling/reporting of invalid WML variable type usage

symbol *before* the files are repreprocessed
* fog and shroud tiles are now defined by the TerrainWML (not [game_config])
* new key store_location_as= to store generated chamber item locations
* the border has been made themable
* Instead of having an empty upkeep type as the default when reading a
config file being used to normally give leaders a 0 upkeep, now leaders
(canrecruit=1) are specifically exempted from upkeep and the upkeep
type defaults to "full" when read from config files the same as for
using the recruit function. This makes documenting how upkeep works
simpler (it currently wasn't really correct) without having to make
leaders loyal. It also will work better for campaigns where the leaders
change (not that there are any now) so that the current leader is
exempted and any exleaders pay for upkeep (unless the are specically
marked as loyal).
* make random_traits default to "yes". Leaders can't get random traits
yet, because it breaks MP, but it does give campaign units traits
by default. It also allows specifying some traits and letting the
rest fill in randomly. Some traits are always forced on for units
that can get them (undead and mechanical).
* not_living tag removed from race, as this information is provided
by the undead and mechanical traits.
* the default for turn limit has changed to unlimited, if you have scenarios
which rely on the old default of 50 please add a turns parameter to it

an unit

* added a .desktop entry for the editor so that it is shown
in the kde/gnome menu
* rewrote the config merge routine (should improve parse time slightly)
* various code cleanups
* Isle of Anduin renamed to Isle of Alduin to avoid copyright problems.
* the assertion 'str.size() <= 4' no longer happens, instead the terrain
is read as 'void' and an ingame message is shown (bug #9609)
* IMPORTANT! End-of-scenario no longer takes you immediately to the
next scenario or the lobby. Instead, you linger in browse mode --
menu commands for chat, saving games, etc. are available.
Clicking end-of-turn ends the linger and takes you out.
* fixed a bug-cheat allowing super-ranged attack in some special cases
(thanks jgp93)
* fixed incorrect displayed reachable zone when moving next to an enemy
in special ZoC cases (skirmish or lvl0)
* It seemed it's ambiguous whether the GPL license as supplied by
Wesnoth means GPL 2 or GPL 2+, since Sirp's orginal intent was
GPL 2+ the license has been changed accordingly.
(See https://mail.gna.org/public/wesnoth-dev/2007-07/msg00014.html)
* When advancing from Dark Sorcerer to Lich, you now get the undead
trait. The way this is fixed can add random traits if the new unit
type allows more traits then the unit currently has. This would
cause a problem for multiplayer, but no advancement paths currently
have this case. You do get to keep your current traits, even if you
wouldn't get them in the new unit type.
* the minimum savegame protection is ignored when either the savegame
or the current game has 'test' as version
* Add 2 debug commands: "fps" for showing framerate, and "benchmark"

right-click cancel on map using fog/shroud

variable (bug #9555)
* the automatic unit description used a non-MP safe way, this has been
fixed
* the unit name generation could with different locales call get_random()
a different number of times. This lead to different names and traits.
Changed to call random a fixed number of times which fixes the traits.
* miscellaneous and bug fixes
* various code cleanups
* proper handling of description autogeneration for per level [effect]
on level 0 units
* changed the order of which the permanent modifications of a unit are
