Lobby Usability Update, and Quest2 Controllers

Version: 0.183.9 / 0.183.8

This update is improves lobby usability, and quest 2 (via steam) controller changes. The lobby portion brings 2 features:

1. column sorting for the lobby.
a. name and proximity columns sorting as expected
b. ELO column can sort either increasing/decreasing, or a third option of closeness. This will show you players based on how near their ELO is to yours

2. While your cursor is anywhere on the lobby panel, the only update you should see is challenge buttons vanishing when people are no longer able to be challenged. Once your cursor (laser) is moved away from the lobby panel, it continue to refresh as usual. This should help avoid the circumstance where you try to challenge one person but instead end up challenging someone else that has moved into that place.

-------------------

This update also fixes the controller issues users who are using Quest2 through Steam have been having. Now you should see the quest2 controller. I lined up up as best as I could. Steam's quest2 models are very wrongly positioning compared to the actual controllers. This means that if steam pushes an update that fixes that, it will break the positioning and will need recalibration again from my side. If this happens, please notify me asap.

Also note for anyone unaware: playing the game on quest/quest2 through pc (regardless of which mode of connection you use), will add latency to your render. To offset this, the positions of the controllers and headset have to be predicted further into the future - for this game, this ends up appearing as bad tracking. If you are one of those users, you should play it natively on quest/quest2 to see the game properly.

meanwhile many server side fixes have been pushed to improve stability. Sorry about restarting the server during your match. I try to do it very late EST time which has the least number of online users.
I hope pretty soon I can make it so that server restarts, that don't contain critical code changes, would be done without users even noticing (so that they may continue to play their games)

0.176.0 - some fixes, more logging


0.176.0
-Added more logging
-adding functionality that when logs are sent, they are sent all together. Hypothetically this may cause frame skips in some cases, but it should also help me find the cause of issues and fix them faster since it will be the full picture since launch
-added sanity check+fix against loose tracked objects
-re-enebled oculus button to reset
-removes a bit of code that kept reacting to setting connections closed over and over.
-added a bunch of extra one-time-fire room position logging, as there are STILL people with issues :(

0.175.2 - Various fixes, more logging


0.175.2
-fixed UDP initialization issue with server reconnect
-added a lot of various logging
-apparently fixed the RiftS through Steam, using Oculus SDK issue a user was having
-updated recentering logic to put 750ms delay between various headset events and auto recentering (quest bug)
-room positioning bug fixes, re-enabled limit range, and added code to force vertically aligned rotations only (though one user said it still acted weird, but i'm troubleshooting that)
-added a send log step through process to help collect information
-added fix that caused frame skips for non english languages
-added ability for me (the developer) to inject a ball machine into a multiplayer session. This could would end up being used later by users, but i’ve added this to troubleshoot a particular user’s tracking/forehand issues.
-while i figure out why the server isn't sending a proper leave-room message, when you press "exit room" it will (should) now severe all user connections..so no more users being visible to you after you leave the room.

Update:

aaand more loggin

Another patch (probably not last)

Every day I'm gathering bugs and fixing them, so there will likely continue to be nightly patches until the bugs found significantly decreases.

As before, I have added the send log button into the game.

Thank you so much for everyone who has sent logs and followed up with an explanation via email /discord
