@casual-simulation/causal-tree-client-socketio - npm Package Versions

V1.0.24

Date: 4/14/2020

Changes:

• :rocket: Improvements

  • Added a button on the sheet code editor to show errors that the script has run into.
    • It is very basic at the moment. There are no line/column numbers, no timestamps, and no way to clear the errors.
    • Errors are automatically pulled from error space and queried based on the following tags:
      • auxError must be true
      • auxErrorBot must be the ID of the bot whose script is in the editor.
      • auxErrorTag must be the name of the tag that is being edited.
    • The following tags are displayed for each error:
      • auxErrorName is the name of the error that occurred.
      • auxErrorMessage is the message that the error contained.

• :bug: Bug Fixes

  • Fixed the color encoding of sprites to use sRGB instead of linear.
  • Fixed an issue where atoms would be sorted improperly because their causes were improperly treated as different.

V1.0.22

Date: 4/11/2020

Changes:

• :boom: Breaking Changes

  • The player.inSheet() function has been changed to return whether the player bot has a dimension in their auxSheetPortal.
    • Previously, it was used to determine if the player was inside auxBuilder (which no longer exists).
  • Removed assignment formulas.
    • Assignment formulas were a special kind of formula where the tag value would be replaced with the result of the formula.
    • They were removed due to lack of use in addition to other means of achieving the same result being available.
  • Semantics of @onUniverseAction have changed.
    • Previously, @onUniverseAction was run before any particular action was executed but the actions that were dispatched from @onUniverseAction were run after the evaluated actions. This led to a scenario in which a @onUniverseAction call could overwrite values that were updated by an action that had not been checked yet.
    • Now, all actions dispatched by @onUniverseAction are executed before the action that is being evaluated. This makes the behavior of the data produced by @onUniverseAction mirror the runtime behavior of @onUniverseAction.

• :rocket: Features

  • Added a new runtime for scripts and formulas.
    • This new runtime is much faster than the previous system and lets us provide features that were not possible before.
    • Should work exactly the same as the previous system. (There might be a couple of tricky-to-reproduce bugs)
    • Now supports setTimeout() and setInterval().
      • This lets you write your own custom game loop if you want.
      • Note that the script energy will only be restored if a user action triggers a shout.
    • Paves the way for future functionality (not guarenteed):
      • Change notifications (@onBotChanged, @onBotTagChanged(), etc.)
      • Asynchronous functions instead of responseShout. (e.g. const response = await webhook.post("https://example.com", data))
  • Added the error space.
    • The error space contains bots that represent errors that have occurred scripts in a universe.
    • Unlike other spaces, the error space does not load all of its bots into the universe automatically.
    • Instead, they have to be requested via a search query. These queries filter bots by tag/value pairs.
    • Currently, error space is only used for storing errors and there is no way to load bots from the space.
    • In the future, we will add the ability to load errors via scripts as well as display them in the sheet.
  • Changed the renderer to output colors in the sRGB color space instead of linear.

• :bug: Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where a shout argument might be recognized as a bot even though it isn't.
  • Fixed an issue where a shout argument with a custom prototype would be overridden.
  • Fixed a bug in three.js's LegacyGLTFLoader where it was using an old API.

V1.0.18

Date: 3/18/2020

Changes:

• :rocket: Improvements

  • Added LOD triggers based on virtual distance.
    • @onMaxLODEnter, @onMinLODEnter, @onMaxLODExit, @onMinLODExit are new listeners that are called when the Max and Min Level-Of-Detail states are entered and exited. There are also "any" versions of these listeners.
      • that is an object with the following properties:
        • bot - The bot that entered/exited the LOD.
        • dimension - The dimension that the LOD was entered/exited in.
    • The #auxMaxLODThreshold and #auxMinLODThreshold tags can be used to control when the LODs are entered/exited.
      • They are numbers between 0 and 1 representing the percentage of the screen that the bot needs to occupy.
      • The Max LOD is entered when the bot occupies a larger percentage of the screen than the max threshold value.
      • The Min LOD is entered when the bot occupies a smaller percentage of the screen than the min threshold value.
    • Only active on bots that specify a listener or threshold value for LODs.

• :robot: Builder Improvements

  • Changed the labeling and ordering of several menu items in the menus.
  • Removed tips from the chat bar.
  • Removed the "Apply Hover Mod" and "Apply Click Mod" menu items.
  • Changed Builder to not move when clicking the grid to clear the menu.
  • Added a "Clear Universe" option to the Builder Egg. Selecting this will create a history mark and then delete every bot in the universe. (it will even delete bots that are marked as not destroyable)

• :bug: Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue with hovering billboarded bots where their rotation would sometimes be reset which would cause the hover exit and enter events to be continually triggered.
  • Fixed an issue where creating a history mark would clear changes that were made during the history mark creation.

V1.0.10

Date: 2/27/2020

Changes:

:rocket: Improvements

• Added Basic WebXR Support

  • This replaces the original WebVR and WebXR support.
  • Supports both the Oculus Quest and Chrome 80+ on Android.
  • Supports all pointer events (click, drag, hover).
  • The player.device() function returns whether AR/VR are supported.
  • The player.enableAR() and player.enableVR() functions are used to jump into AR/VR.
  • The world is placed on the ground (if supported by the device) and bots are 1 meter cubed by default.
  • When using a controller, dragging a bot with #auxPositioningMode set to absolute will move it in free space.

• :bug: Bug Fixes

  • Fixed several issues with using numbers for the auxUniverse and auxPagePortal query parameters.
  • Fixed an issue that would cause a service worker to fail to update because an external resource could not be fetched.
  • Fixed an issue that would cause a stack overflow error when too many uncommitted atoms are loaded.

V1.0.6

Date: 2/19/2020

Changes:

:boom: Breaking Changes

  • See https://casualos.com/home/google-poly-example for an example.

:rocket: Improvements

• Added the config, configTag, and tagName variables.
  • These variables are useful for creating values and scripts that are shared across multiple bots.
  • The config variable is a shortcut for getBot("#id", tags.auxConfigBot).
  • The tagName variable is the name of the tag that the script is running in.
  • The configTag variable is a shortcut for config.tags[tagName].
• Made the player menu full width on mobile devices.
• Improved the sheet portal to load all bots when set to true, id, or space.

:bug: Bug Fixes

• Made bots be hidden while their images are loading.
• Improved the image loading logic to cache requests for the same URL.

V0.11.22

Date: 1/16/2020

• Breaking Changes
  • Changed player bots to use the tempLocal space.
    • This means that refreshing the page won't pollute the universe with a ton of extra bots.

    • Previously they were created in the shared space.
• Improvements
  • Added the ability to create, load, and restore version marks.

Date: 10/28/2019

Changes:

• Improvements

      if (that.action.type === 'device') {
          if (
              ['save_file', 'load_file'].indexOf(
                  that.action.event.type
              ) >= 0
          ) {
              action.perform(that.action.event);
          }
      }
