* An embarrassing bug was fixed where you could win by bombing your own buildings.
* The ox \"splat\" screen now shows correctly if you are shot down and crash into an ox.
* Bug fixes and changes in this version:
* libm is included as a dependency when needed (thanks slicer69).
* No error is printed if the config file doesn\'t exist (thanks Kenneth Pronovici).
* The screen is now redrawn properly when in menus and the window is uncovered or resized (thanks Kenneth Pronovici).
* Some potential crashes were fixed when near the edges of the map.
* Some of the code has been refactored to centralize how levels are defined. In the future this will help to support custom levels.
* Documentation changes:
* Build instructions were clarified (thanks Kenneth Pronovici).
* Better documentation of novice mode was added to the manpage (thanks Kenneth Pronovici).
* References to the -p argument were removed from the manpage and the help text (thanks Kenneth Pronovici).
* Changes in this version:
* Sound has been reenabled. Sound output is now passed through a bandpass filter intended to make it sound like a real PC speaker, and also plays back at a much quieter volume, to be less startling to new players.
* Medals are now awarded to reward players (thanks creichen). The Unix manpage includes some details about the medals and how to attain them.
* There is now a configuration screen for setting key bindings, which are stored in the same configuration file as other settings.
* Thanks to SDL2\'s renderer API, the game now scales up to arbitrary window sizes and resolutions, and isn\'t limited to just 320x200 or 640x400.
* Network performance has been improved significantly.
* The Unix manpage has been significantly improved and expanded. A separate manpage was added for the configuration file.
* Sopwith now runs on macOS, and Mac .dmg packages are generated.
* Also now builds and runs cleanly on Haiku.

* The missiles feature was changed to a hidden setting since it\'s not very fun and doesn\'t really fit the game\'s theme.
* The networking option to use a \"TCP loop\" has now been merged with the normal \"connect\" option, for simplicity. The target server may be a real server or a TCP loop server, and the clients will autodiscover.
* Movement precision within the game was made significantly more precise. This fixes a long-standing issue where fractional movement values were just being discarded, instead of being included in calculations as they should have been.
* Fix computer planes not shooting when tailing the player\'s plane (creichen).
* Fix planes crashing into their own bullets (creichen).
* Fix players able to turn quickly when wounded and using the autopilot.
* Damaged ground no longer remains on the title screen after the game ends.
* Network games no longer desync when only one player uses harry keys mode.

* Code has been ported to SDL2.
* Rewritten graphics code
