Ivan Savenko 9bfe000724 Added semi-workaround method for network thread shutdown:
Currently closing game while network thread is waiting for something is
very bug-prone, since network thread may resume during shutdown and
access partially destroyed client state.

Now if exit has been requested, the very first step would be semi-
graceful shutdown of network thread (via exception throwing). This may
in theory skip some cleanup in non-RAII code, but since game is shutting
down this does not matters much.

This logic applies to:
- shutting down while network thread is waiting for dialogs
- shuttind down while network thread waiting for animations in combat

Latest release

Latest release can be found in Github Releases page. As of right now we plan to have major releases around 3 times per year. Daily builds are still available at builds.vcmi.download but they are not guaranteed to be stable. So we encourage everybody to use them and report found bugs so that we can fix them. Loading saves made with different major version of VCMI is usually not supported, so you may want to finish your ongoing games before updating. Please see corresponding installation guide articles for details for your platform.
