- **fixed** — Prevent multiplayer desync when a train crashes
- **fixed** — Crash helicopter within the map instead of the void when it runs out of fuel near the map edge
- **fixed** — Improve appearance of toolbars and main menu images/text with non-default base sets such as aBase, biggui, and original TTD

It's April, time for a new OpenTTD version?

Sort of. We're hard at work on features for OpenTTD 16, but in the meantime we've fixed a few bugs including a multiplayer desync triggered by train crashes.

Fixes include:

- Don't desync multiplayer clients when a train crashes

- When a helicopter runs out of fuel near the map edge, crash it within the map instead of the void (which crashes the whole game)

- Improve appearance of toolbars and main menu images/text with some non-default base sets such as aBase, biggui, and original TTD
