- A proper ./configure, so everything needs to be configured only once, not for every make.
- Usage of makedepend when available. This greatly reduces the time needed for generating the dependencies.
- A generator for all project files. There is a single file with sources, which is used to generate Makefiles and the project files for MSVC.
- Proper support for OSX universal binaries.
- Object files for non-MSVC compiles are also placed in separate directories, making is faster to switch between debug and release compiles and it does not touch the directory with the source files.
- Functionality to make a bundle of all needed files for for example a nightly or distribution of a binary with all needed GRFs and language files.
Note: as this merge moves almost all files, it is recommended to make a backup of your working copy before updating your working copy.
This is only possible in SP (or in the intro menu). During game play you will
get a confirmation window when applying the changes as some actions can crash
OpenTTD and/or make your current game unplayable.
-Feature: show NewGRF compatability of network games in the Game List window; a green square if you got the same OpenTTD version and have the needed NewGRF, a red square if the version does not match and a yellow square if the version matches, but the client is missing at least one of the NewGRFs.
