The Multiplayer and Custom Stuff pages of the game's pause menu were
built from the game's own menu widgets: a button, a text box and a line
of text, which cannot make a list with columns. The game now keeps only
the frame around each page (top bar, title, Back prompt) and ReSkate
draws everything in it, tabs included. The native page is one empty
body.
Multiplayer
- Server browser: a list with name, map and skaters columns that sort,
search, filters (all, servers, lobbies, friends, hide full, my map),
and a panel for the session pointed at. Pressing a row joins it; the
row says JOIN while pointed at. Join by code is in the panel, and its
own tab is gone.
- Host lobby, as before.
- Current session (only in one): who is here, leave, map, join code,
party.
- Voice chat (only in a session).
- Session settings (only for a lobby's host or a server's admin). They
are sent as explicit values, which a dedicated server needs.
Custom Stuff
- Official maps and Custom maps: pressing a map loads it.
- World: traffic, pedestrians, time of day.
- Parks: a card for each lot with its style, layout and load.
- Player: noclip, no bail, Hall of Meat, board wear, the camera views,
flight speed and the boosts.
- Online: player and nametag distances, nametags, chat, chat bubbles,
Discord status, and showing your tag and items.
- Visuals: camera effects, challenges, shuffle playlists.
- Binds: record or clear the button for each action.
- The player card name is no longer on the page (cardname in the
console still sets it).
Input: the game keeps the mouse and controller while its menu is up,
so the pages only watch them. They have their own focus, moved with
the D-pad or arrow keys and pressed with A or Enter, with LT/RT or Z/C
for tabs; lists remember the row the focus left. Typing in a text box
or recording a bind takes the keyboard and controller for that long,
as chat does. Nothing is taken while the game is not the window in
front, and the overlay's own menu draws on top.
Layout follows the game's menu at any window shape: scaled to fit
whole, 192 units clear at the sides, centred past 4704 units wide.
Sounds: the pages raise the game's own UI one-shot event for moving
the focus, pressing and changing tab.
In offline mode, closing the pause menu on Social or Custom Stuff and
opening it again showed an empty Social page, and Back did nothing until
the player switched tabs. The game reopens the page at the last position
in its own tab list (Social at position 4, the Store at position 3)
before insert() swaps the Store for Custom Stuff. Offline that swap
leaves the tab count at 5, so the menu never redraws the page.
Keep a copy of the Store tab last for a moment so the count changes and
the right page is drawn, then drop it again (trim_store). Online, and
reopening on Map, Hub or Skaters, nothing changes.

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.
