Are you spooked? We are too with this spooky release date, even if nothing in OpenTTD itself is spooky.

Luckily, I can offer you the first testing release of the 13.X release series. We collected whatever we could find on the cutting room floor to get you a Halloween release.

Some of the higlights of this release include:

-      Build NewGRF objects over an era with click-and-drag.

-      Wider rivers on map generation.

-      Improved handling of HiDPI and mixed-DPI screens.

-      Some more GUI improvements like a cleaned up finance window.

-      Many bug-fixes (over 50 of them), tweaks, changes, and other additions.

(As ever, see the changelog for further details).
