556 When editing a design map, users can select a default theme for the map.

The map editor has also had improvements made for mobile devices, and several minor bug fixes applied. 2024-04-15
555 Map images are now rendered entirely on the client instead of using a cached image from the server. Mini mountains have been added (aesthetic only), and several countries have had their building colors slightly modified. 2024-04-15
554 Two new terrain themes have been added: Desert and Days of Ruin! Note that buildings will still use the selected 'AWBW Theme' (AW1 / AW2 / Animated). You can change the theme on your Settings page, on the map preview page, or from the View menu on the game page. You may need to hard-refresh (ctrl-F5) to see all images correctly.

Huge thanks to bukie for providing all of the sprite work for both terrain themes!
