| colspan="2" | [http://www.skulltag.com/download/files/release/st-v097c2.zip Zip]
==== 3.0 ====
|  
* Updated Zandronum's (G)ZDoom base to ZDoom 2.8pre-441-g458e1b1 / GZDoom 1.8.6. [Torr Samaho]
|  
* Rewrote support for preferred weapon order. Weapon info is now automatically looked up, the ORDERDEF lump has been removed. [Dusk]
|
* Generalized the rune system. Any rune can be used as a powerup (including spread, prosperity and reflection, which are now available as powerups), and any powerup can be used as a rune. [Dusk]
| colspan="2" |
* Added NamedRequestScriptPuke, named variant of RequestScriptPuke. The two functions can now take 1-5 parameters, thus supporting 4 script arguments. [Dusk]
| <code>ST_0.97c</code> or [http://www.skulltag.com/download/files/release/st-v097c2_src.zip source zip]
* Added ACS time and date access functions SystemTime(), GetTimeProperty and Strftime(). The return value of SystemTime() may be overridden by the user with the new CCMD acstime. [Dusk]
|-
* Quad-buffered stereo / 3D Vision support can now be toggled with the new CVAR gl_quadbufferedstereo (default false). [Torr Samaho]
| style='width: 20px; text-align: center;' | [[File:SkullTag Icon.png|16px|Skulltag]]
* The warp cheat now works online and can be used by spectators even if sv_cheats is false. [Dusk]
| 0.97c
* Being banned from a server now shows the server's contact email address. Being masterbanned now shows a clearer message that directs to the forums. [Dusk]
|
* Players' positions in the join queue are now rendered on the scoreboard. [Dusk]
| colspan="2" | [http://www.skulltag.com/download/files/release/st-v097c.zip Zip]
* The internal server browser now automatically loads the wads of the selected server when joining. For this, all wads need to be in a place where they can be found with the '-file' command line option. In the browser menu, the left and right keys allow to scroll through the list of filtered servers. [Torr Samaho]
|
* The 'Join the game' command key used by spectators is now customizable in the 'Customize Controls' menu. [Edward-san, Dusk]
|
* The default 'authhostname' CVAR has been changed to the official zandronum game authentication server ( auth.zandronum.com:16666 ). [AlexMax, Edward-san]
|
* BOTINFO now allows to define more than 128 bots. [Torr Samaho]
| colspan="2" |
* Chat now features a movable cursor, allowing text insertion/deletion from elsewhere than just the end. [Dusk]
| <code>ST_0.97c</code>
* Chat preview is now rendered on multiple lines, if necessary. [Dusk]
|-

* Chat can now tab complete player names. [Dusk]
| 0.97b
* Clients' account names are now visible in the output of CCMD "playerinfo", unless the player hides it with the new CVar cl_hideaccount. The server can always see the accountname from playerinfo. [Dusk]
|
* Added a mechanism to safe login credentials under Windows using the Windows Credential Manager aka Windows Vault. The credentials can be stored using the new CCMD 'login_add'. A default user name can be specified with the new CVAR 'login_default_user'. [Torr Samaho]
| colspan="2" | [http://www.skulltag.com/download/files/release/st-v097b.zip Zip]
* Fixed: Newly connecting clients were not properly informed about the secrets that were already revealed. [Torr Samaho]

== Changelogs ==
=== Development ===
'''Note:''' Because the versions under this section are still undergoing development, these changelogs might be slightly outdated. It's best to keep up to date via the #zatesting channel on [[IRC]] or checking the history file in the source repository time to time.
 
==== 3.1 ====
* Added a new server administration menu, from which server settings can be changed without needing to use the console. The menu will ask for the RCON password if necessary. Gameplay and compatibility settings are now grayed out unless the user has RCON access and work online properly. Added various Zandronum-specific gameplay settings to the menu. [Dusk]
* "stat nettraffic" now also shows information on the number of many missing packets the client requests from the servers. [Torr Samaho]
* The server can now broadcast the MD5 hashes of loaded PWADs to launchers. [Sean]
* Fixed: ACS function SetSkyScrollSpeed didn't work online. [Edward-san]
* Fixed: color codes in callvote reasons weren't terminated properly. [Dusk]
* Fixed: The 'Color Setter' and the 'Fade Setter' things weren't handled properly on map resets. [Edward-san]
* Fixed: A_JumpIfTargetInsideMeleeRange and A_JumpIfTargetOutsideMeleeRange weren't handled properly online. [Edward-san]
* Fixed: Same spot respawn didn't work anymore with dead spectators. [Edward-san]
* Fixed: A_CheckLOF wasn't handled properly online. [Edward-san]
* Fixed the DROPPED flag not being removed from level-spawned things when not needed. [Edward-san]
* Fixed an ACS related server and client crash. [Torr Samaho]
* sv_forcegldefaults renamed to sv_forcevideodefaults. The old name still exists for compatibility. [Dusk]
* r_3dfloors is now forced to be true when sv_forcevideodefaults is true. [Dusk]
 
=== Zandronum ===
==== 3.0 ====
* Updated Zandronum's (G)ZDoom base to ZDoom 2.8pre-441-g458e1b1 / GZDoom 1.8.6. [Torr Samaho]
* Rewrote support for preferred weapon order. Weapon info is now automatically looked up, the ORDERDEF lump has been removed. [Dusk]
* Generalized the rune system. Any rune can be used as a powerup (including spread, prosperity and reflection, which are now available as powerups), and any powerup can be used as a rune. [Dusk]
* Added a new buffer for the reliable packets scheduled to be sent from the server to the clients. This allows to limit the number of packets the server sends to a client per tick (CVAR sv_maxpacketspertick, default 64). In particular, this allows to spread the full update a client gets when connecting to the server over multiple ticks and should fix problems connecting to large maps with many actors. Also increased the packet loss buffer size from 1024 to 2048. [Torr Samaho]

* Backported ZDoom's ACS function GetActorFloorTexture. [Torr Samaho]
* The SQLite3 database can now be used in WAL mode. This mode is enabled / disabled with the new CCMDs 'db_enable_wal' / 'db_disable_wal'. [Torr Samaho]

* Fixed: When a player carrying the white flag died or disconnected, the white flag was spawned on the floor instead of the actual Z position of the player. [Edward-san]
* Fixed: Dying players with no lives left disappeared instantly if compat_instantrespawn was enabled. [Edward-san]
* The authentication mechanism for non-map related lumps now allows Freedoom 0.10/Doom clients to join Doom/Freedoom 0.10 servers. [Torr Samaho]
