Changelogs. The launcher's main screen has a CHANGELOGS tile in the
bottom-left corner. It opens a panel with the newest GitHub release: its
tag, title, date and notes. The notes are the release's description, read
as markdown and drawn like a mod's README (headings, bullets, code, rules).
A release published without a description shows what its GitHub page shows,
the tagged commit's message, taken from the releases feed. Fetched once,
the first time the panel opens; "Open on GitHub" goes to the releases page.
Download total. On GET MODS, the bar for ticked mods now gives the size of
what installing them downloads: "3 mods selected / 1.27 GB to download".
It is the sum of each mod's newest version as Thunderstore lists it.
Discord joins. The command the game registers for Discord to start ReSkate
now passes --no-gui, so pressing Join with the game closed goes straight
into the game instead of stopping at the launcher window.
--no-gui with no other launch flags now starts the game with the launcher's
saved settings (window size, menu and console keys, loose files, GPU
diagnostics, Discord status, offline, log level, extra launch options), as
pressing PLAY does. With flags of its own it behaves as before.
Mod Options. The pause menu's "Custom Stuff" page is renamed "Mod Options",
in the menu, the READMEs and the comments.
Not tested in game: the Discord join with the game closed, and the renamed
page. The changelog panel has only been seen with the earlier API-only
fetch.
Skater slot, menu and throwdown fixes; MY MODS rework; lobby parties
Saved skaters (Extension/Customization, Extension/Skater)
- The selected slot, and slots before it, came up as the standard
skater after a start or map change. The game asks for a slot's saved
outfit once per level, and that happened before the cosmetics catalog
could be read. The first selection now waits for the catalog (60 s at
most), and later map changes check against the catalog already read.
- The retry from abdda77 is removed: the record it wrote to is a
temporary on the game's stack, so it could never work.
Pause menu (Extension/UI/NativeMenu)
- ReSkate's entries stopped working after enough map changes: each
level change took new slots in a fixed table of 1024 for the same
buttons. A button now keeps its slot, and a full table hands out the
slot that has gone longest unused.
Throwdowns (Extension/Throwdowns, Runtime/runtime_init.cpp)
- Multiplayer crashed when someone placed a throwdown after a map
change. The event types are freed with the level but were cached for
the process. They are now cleared when a level is left, checked
before use, and looked for again in each level.
MY MODS (Launcher/gui_mods.cpp, gui.cpp)
- Search, a filter and an order; a switch per mod; a menu per row.
- Multi-select with tick boxes, Shift-click and Ctrl+A, and a bar to
enable, disable, move, update or uninstall everything ticked.
Lobby parties (Extension/Multiplayer/Session)
- A lobby is no longer one party. Its host keeps parties the way a
dedicated server does: invite, accept, join, leave, kick, promote,
open and close, with "/p" party chat. The "Lobby party" switch is
gone. Protocol version unchanged (38).
Mod merge (Engine/Vfs), follow-ups to e715b9b
- Files rewritten into the merged patch are tracked by position, so
another mod's added assets no longer shift the lookup.
- Two mods adding different assets under one name is now noted, with
whose copy the maps get.
- mod_merge_unshift_tests compiles with the launcher tests on.
