v1.1.7

Hotfix to fix some bad bugs in the last release.

• Fixed graphical artifacts when painting terrain
• Fixed a crash when generating terrain with a configuration that included no LAT ground type
• Fixed a bug where cells added on map resize were not properly affected by lighting

v1.1.6

Minor update to fix bugs and improve some functionality.

• Added preview for Auto-LAT
• The trigger editor is now wider on wide displays (displays where horizontal rendering resolution is higher than 1920)
• Trigger-type parameters of trigger actions are now colorized based on the color of the referred trigger
• Removed tileset restriction for painting high bridges. High bridge painting now only ignores tiles based on height without caring about the tileset under the bridge painting cursor
• Fixed a bug where buildings with a foundation larger than 1x1 applied their lighting once for each foundation cell
• Fixed a bug where windows were moved when scrollbars were scrolled using the mouse cursor (mouse wheel scrolling still worked without side-effects)

v1.1.5

Minor update.

• Added window for selecting a particle system for trigger action parameters
• Improved window dragging behaviour. Windows now do a better job of following your cursor when you're dragging them around.
• Objects are now only dragged if the left mouse button is first pressed down on the object. Object dragging can no longer be accidentally done by hovering over an object with the left mouse button already held down before the cursor appeared on the object.
• Fixed a bug where "View Attached Objects" did not check for linked triggers if the selected trigger had no tag

v1.1.4

Small update for better base node support.

• Base nodes now display their priority (index in internal list of base nodes)
• Added possibility to re-order base nodes through the base node management tool
• (TS) Added support for new "Assign Mission To All Units" trigger action
• Building type selection window now displays INI names of building types
• Improved description of "Allow Win" trigger action, mentioning it's obsolete in TS and RA2
• Fixed a crash when selecting an unknown trigger event or action added through another editor
• Fixed a crash when selecting an unknown team script action added through another editor

v1.1.3

There turned out to be a couple of bad bugs in the last release. This one fixes them.

• Fixed a crash when modifying terrain height near map border
• Fixed a bug where cells in marble madness mode were affected by lighting on painting terrain
• Fixed a bug where light posts affected freshly painted cells in "No Lighting" mode

v1.1.2

Minor update, mainly to fix bugs.

• Added an option to sort triggers by color followed by name (Credits: Shush)
• Improved top bar button textures (Credits: Crimsonum)
• Lighting calculations on adding, moving or deleting light posts have been optimized to only re-calculate lighting for the affected area instead of the whole map (Credits: ZivDero)
• The "Raise Individual Cells" and "Lower Individual Cells" tools can now use the "Fill Terrain" hotkey (default: Ctrl) to affect an enclosed area (Credits: Starkku)
• View -> "Edit Drawn objects..." has been renamed to "Configure Rendered Objects..."
• Improved error message when a connected tile specifies a nonexistent TileSet
• Improved error message on script execution failure
• Script action options can now be parsed from another section (Credits: Starkku)
• Fixed several bugs where cell lighting values were not updated on cell height level change
• Fixed a bug where the megamap (F12) was displayed behind other UI elements
• Fixed a bug where overlay land type was reset to "Clear" if it was not re-defined in all INI sections where information for the overlay type was parsed from
• Fixed a bug where the position of editor notifications (such as "Map auto-saved.") was not refreshed after the editor window had been resized
• Fixed a bug where the map path was not wrapped in quotation marks when it was opened in a text editor, potentially resulting in weird behaviour from the text editor
• Fixed an edge case bug where a TaskForce or Script could sometimes appear to be selected when actually no TaskForce or Script was selected
• Fixed a bug where the editor ignored AllowToPlace=no when looking up connected tiles to place
• Fixed a bug where AITriggers were written incorrectly if a weight was 0
• Fixed a bug where you could not input decimal numbers in AITrigger weights
• (DTA) Fixed a bug where veins were rendered in the wrong palette
• (RA2/YR) Fixed newly-created standard houses having a null HouseType
• (RA2/YR) Fixed creating a new HouseType after creation of standard houses causing HouseTypes of the standard houses to show up as none
• (RA2/YR) Fixed indexing of newly-created HouseTypes to ignore Player@WPZZ houses
• (RA2/YR) Fixed "Parent Country" dropdown of "Edit Country" window repeatedly accumulating items when opened for non-standard HouseTypes

v1.1.1

The highlight of this release is the new Connected Tile drawing tool. This tool can be used to quickly draw lines of cliffs, shores, and roads without having to place each piece down manually. Credits to ZivDero for coding the initial version of this tool, which we then improved on together.
