Jan 1, 2025January 2025 Rain-Meadow — Focused on expanding modding capabilities, stabilizing cross-network state, and refining UX and diagnostics. Key features delivered include: - Save State String Filter Hooks: introduced savestring filter hook to let mods modify save data during serialization (commits: ded723f5861a4659f81994564ca4c0fdeea33dc5; b105c01e8597f86ac0d6ad0fb6a3d2d3ed34d52d). - OnlineResource State Change Events: added OnAvailable, OnNewOwner, OnNewParticipant, OnParticipantLeft to signal resource state changes to external systems/mods (commit: c3f78a23ce52181b789f97f5978ae2ddbde66adc). - SlugcatSelectMenu SliderSetValue hook and cleanup: enabled dynamic control/feedback and removed an unused constructor (commit: c38864c6f46ecdc1b6d855cfa0dff5b148ba7274). - Workshop Host Description Clarifications: clarified host limitations and supported slugcats (commit: 515c135ab1c013bbf95d1e8bdf5cb916bf36cbb9). - Reds Illness Scope Limited to Hunter Campaigns: disable Reds Illness outside hunter campaigns to improve gameplay balance (commit: c75efab216dc1b387d35412d18ba9fd978a3c383). - MeadowRemixOptions Syntax Fix: resolved a missing comma to restore proper compilation (commit: 2a735b2a008c65791deadf84570b984efa8d253d). - Game Over and Pause UX Improvements: clarified game over message and host pause behavior to dismiss messages (commit: 655feb3146ee61af6bbc602983e7bce34febe48c). - Logging Efficiency and Reduced Console Noise: streamlined logging and consolidated array logging (commit: 20f8f32654a1f3844b77f81c63ba719947c54dc6). Major bugs fixed: - RegionGates MeetRequirement Sync: synchronized MeetRequirement state across network; refactored readyForGate to an enum for clarity and correct broadcaster communication (commit: 87d978a55e170de2a3b25c082026db239102f9ac). - Slugcat Color Fallback: fallback to default colours when color index is out of bounds to prevent errors and ensure visuals (commit: 3e92794fb4b76d2f875fc531f619936abe2a80a9). - MeadowRemixOptions Syntax Fix: fixed a missing comma to restore proper compilation and runtime behavior (commit: 2a735b2a008c65791deadf84570b984efa8d253d). Overall impact and accomplishments: - Strengthened modding integration and reliability, enabling richer customization and external signaling for mods/systems. - Improved multiplayer stability and UX through clearer messaging, host controls, and state synchronization. - Reduced diagnostic noise and improved maintainability via focused logging improvements and defensive fixes. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - C#, event-driven modding hooks, and backward-compatible API extensions. - Network synchronization patterns and enum-based state communication. - UI hook integration and dynamic control patterns. - Defensive programming for visuals and host logic, plus logging optimization for production clarity.
