This release fixes an issue where children of for statements in screens would
not get their data propagated through screen update cycles. This manifested
in complicated ways, such as transitions repeating and slow text refusing
to work.
This release displays the newest save slot in the selected color, as
intended. This applies to newly created games, older projects can update
by adding to the bottom of gui.rpy::
define gui.slot_button_text_selected_idle_color = gui.selected_color
define gui.slot_button_text_selected_hover_color = gui.hover_color
A problem introduced in 6.99.14.2 with the the default statement
not working after a rollback has been fixed. This should only ever
have affected games that were updated after a save was first
created.
The initial prerelease is 6.99.14.3.3341. Since this is a minimal set of changes compared to 6.99.14.2, I'd be fine standing by this if people want to release NaNoRenO games with 6.99.14.3, especially if you've encountered problems in 6.99.14.2.

6.99.14.3.3347 is now up on the prerelease channel.
This changes AlphaMask so it lays out the mask displayable, which makes it possible to use use a moving ATL animation as the mask.
It also renames a few displayables. LiveComposite is now Composite, LiveTile is now Tile, and LiveCrop is now Crop. (The old names still work, it's just that the new ones remove a prefix.)
Finally, a few obsolete image manipulators have become undocumented.
This release is looking pretty close to done at this point.
