Big Maintenance Update


While there are some further Wang Brush improvements and small fixes in this new snapshot, the majority of the work has been in the background.

All builds have been upgraded from Qt 5.12 to Qt 5.15 and are now done using a rewritten workflow based on GitHub Actions. This has several advantages over the previously used scripts that were running on various other services:

  • The builds for all platforms can now be tested before they are pushed to itch.io
  • The compilation for all platforms and uploading them now takes less than 15 minutes!
  • It appears to have fixed two serious macOS related issues (#2785 and #2845)

Another large amount of work went into adapting Tiled source code to compile against Qt 6, the future version of the framework on which Tiled is built. While the releases will be based on Qt 5.15 for a while still, it is good to be ready for the future and to be able to report any issues we identify. Qt 6 is currently in Beta.

I've also added back a Windows 32-bit build. It turns out that once in a while there is still somebody on a 32-bit system (0.37% of Steam users, even). So far I've been directing them to the 32-bit Windows XP build, but I'd like to retire the Windows XP build soon since I'd like to increase the minimum supported Qt version.
