TownSquare changelog

Changelog

A simple place to record when TownSquare changes and what changed.

  • TownSquare map: Site owners and visitors can explore verified TownSquares, follow the paths between connected sites, and see them within a shared scenic world.
  • Map management: Service admins can shape that world with forests, mountains, custom lakes, and curved rivers from a visual editor.
  • Site owner profiles: Customize a verified owner's display name, character colour, and crown badge colour from the admin page. The saved profile returns with that browser on future visits.

  • Connected towns: Link neighbouring TownSquares to the left or right edge. A directional signpost appears, and visitors can walk over and travel there. Set links in your site admin.
  • Typing indicators: Animated dots now show when someone is writing a message.
  • Town Square Customization: You can now customize your own Town Square. Add more props (benches, trees, etc.) and change the color scheme.
  • Tree colors: Trunk and leaves are now customizable in style overrides.
  • Chat bubbles: Fixed long messages overflowing the edge in narrow or embedded TownSquares; bubbles now size to the widget instead of the browser window.
  • Chat history: Recent-message trays now stay inside the TownSquare at narrow widths.
  • Chat shortcut: Press T to jump straight into the chat input.
  • Remember me: Admin and service admin logins can now stay signed in on your device for 30 days.
  • Admin Chat Panel: Added a chat panel to the admin page for easy moderation.
  • Message stats: The admin and service admin pages now show the total message count and when the last message was sent.

  • High five: Press H to invite someone to high five.
  • Site owner badge: Identifies the site owner in the room.
  • Chat input: Your own chat history no longer appears while typing a new message, improving overall readability.
  • Mobile Action Buttons: Added action buttons to the mobile version of the widget.
