July 2025 summary: Across easy-games/airship-testbed and easy-games/airship, delivered notable features, improved stability, and strengthened cross‑platform support. In testbed, we improved player display name mapping to usernames, refined world positioning with explicit world position and math.round rounding, cleaned up skybox/materials, and enhanced editor/avatar behavior. Movement corrections fixed feet mapping and slides, and timing/event scheduling was stabilized to ensure reliable featured events. In airship, Steam integration features expose friend activity, online status, and profile pictures, with InviteUserToGame support; iOS and mobile reliability improved via a dedicated build script and mobile patches, and editor wrapping plus viewmodel/animation refactor improved tooling and consistency. Networking tuning increased send rate and PoolManager usage around world position/rotation for smoother state synchronization, and a robust UI flow added error messaging and retry capability for game bundle downloads. Additional maintenance included version bumps, staging log visibility, and compatibility work to keep older clients supported. These changes reduce crashes, improve UX, speed up iteration cycles, and strengthen cross‑platform performance, enabling more reliable live services and a smoother player experience.
