Beta: Rerolling the roller

[p]It’s high time for a Beta![/p][p]You can find all the details and instructions on how to join the beta over here: [/p][p]https://talespire.com/welcome-to-the-roller-rewrite-beta[/p][p][/p][p]We have completely rewritten the code that handles the synchronization of the dice. The improvements are:[/p]

• [p]The data sent over the internet to keep the dice in sync has been halved. Often it can drop to a third of the previous rate[/p]
• [p]The code that handles updating the dice update takes a tenth of the time for large rolls[/p]
• [p]There used to be cases where clearing large numbers of dice would crash the game. These bugs are fixed.[/p]
• [p]If you have two copies of the game open, you can now pick up your own rolls from both clients.[/p]
• [p]Rolls don’t despawn if the person who rolled them leaves the board (for example, if they lost connection)[/p]

[p]One side effect of these changes is that GMs can now pick up any roll. Doing so takes ownership of the roll. We are leaning towards disabling this again, but we’d like to hear your feedback.[/p][p]Lastly, we’ve added a roll icon on every dice result in the history. This allows you to add it to the dice tray with a left-click. Or you can add the roll to your inventory by right-clicking and dragging it to the inventory bar.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]The Beta will run for a week before this gets merged into the live branch. We appreciate reports of any bugs or quirks![/p][p]Till next time![/p]
