Release notes
💝 Improvements
- Add new course "Introduction to Javascript in GDevelop"
- It will be made available in the next few days, as a stand-alone course and also available in the Indie Kickstarter Studio Bundle.
- This is for users looking to learn JavaScript basics, implement complex patterns in their games, and learn how to manipulate GDevelop objects through JavaScript.
- AI Agent improvements:
- Improve Layers and Camera documentation, so the agent can more reliably modify layer properties,
- Improve the AI to allow the agent to modify (or add or remove) object groups in scenes,
- allow using "up" and "down" arrows to navigate through chat history in the AI agent & chat.
- Improve previews on the web-app:
- Support for hot-reloading (like on the desktop app),
- Huge speed-up (no more file uploads, everything is done locally on the device storage),
- Fix for Safari/Firefox not opening the preview window.
🐛 Bug fixes
- Fix Tilemaps layers visibility not being taken into account in the game
- Fix default value of "String with options" wrongly reset in the extension editor
- Fix .fnt loading for files generated by some tools
- A new "header" has been added in every .fnt generated with the common BitmapFont generator at http://snowb.org/. They will now be properly loaded.
- Fix leaderboard entry rate limiting: this enforces a limit of 12 successful saves per minute globally and 6 per minute per leaderboard.
This is more than enough for the very large majority of games. This will avoid issues when sending too many scores because of a mistake or wrong game design.
