Crash upon new scenario
My Wesnoth always takes a while to load between scenarios, which is a pain but not a big issue. Last night my laptop died while in that loading phase (to be clear, this is after I press end scenario, not the loading page itself. It loads for a while on that screen then eventually moves on.). When I tried to open Wesnoth this morning, it crashed when I attempted to open the saves. I tried a few things, including purging my cache and clearing out my save files. I also attempted to open the campaign (add-on The Dark Master) from scratch; it would load, but as soon as the opening dialogue ended and it came time for the start of the scenario, when the objectives would be displayed, it crashed. I attempted this a couple times and attempted another campaign, with the same result. I realized I was still playing on 1.14.4 for whatever reason, so I downloaded 1.14.17, but I'm still having the same problem. As soon as it would display the objectives, the application crashes. I have my language set to Latin, I'm on macOS 10.15.3. It appears another user was having a similar problem, with no solution given: https://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=54273
Any ideas?

Re: Crash upon new scenario
A couple things to try:
- Does this happen with mainline campaigns as well?
- Does it happen when the language is set to English?
- Does it happen if you remove you're add-ons (cut/paste them to another folder)?

Re: Crash upon new scenario
Also happens with mainline campaigns and with my language as English, as well as for a local game. Tried moving the add-ons around and that also didn't make a difference.

Try delete your save_index file. You have not posted your own logs, but linked ones indicate compression problem.
