Rise of the Robot Overlords

This release is going to be the last "stable" while we undergo a rather hefty refactoring- I will update the release notes with a permalink to the Vercel release that will always work, for those that don't want to lose their towns in future updates.

Notably, this release features a bunch of artwork generated by Dalle2.

Added

• Fancy new link animation
• Images generated via DallE2 for every building and faction type
• Ability to export pantheons during the export process
• Native share menu for iOS & Android
• Explanation tooltip for the politics and economic ideologies
• Confectionary shops (thanks, dcorriveau!)
• Added a terminal warning when on Windows to fix a common issue when installing.
• 🎲 favicon!
• Added a create building button to the detailed town page.
• Added a dockerfile for ease of dev setup.

Changed

• Fixed a rather pesky and persistent bug where changing racial or religious weights would not be reflected in the town.
• Fixed a bug where popups on the town editing page would not fire after the first interaction.
• Made the banner text a little easier to read.
• Fixed an issue where smithies and guardhouses could not be created on roads (thanks, Saxeen!)
• Fixed the alchemist not showing consumables
• The catchphrase button now can fire on any page.

Removed

• ENnies related stuff
• Removed dead code for createTownBiome
• Started the process of removing getters and setters. Down with object oriented, long live functional programming!

Known Issues

• If you navigate back to a page with an image then it won't load the image. This was present in 2.8, and nobody noticed. Oh well.

ENnies Edition

Added

• Restart link in the breadcrumb header
• Added links to stuff to footer
• Added icons to sidebar
• Added request to vote for the generator

Changed

• Unlocked Pantheon system thanks to Patrons.
• Changed some CSS with the importing of Pantheons.
• Fixed a typo or two.
• Fixed an issue where creating customers would ignore input fields.
• Updated dependencies

Removed

• Credits/Legal from the sidebar

Change URL structure

Added

• You can now link directly to buildings and the owners of buildings that were pre-generated.

Changed

• The generator no longer uses the location.hash for the seed, and instead uses the location.search property.

Add editable stats

2.8.11

Added

• Some of the NPC stats are now editable.

Changed

• Fixed racial description while editing town demographics not updating.

• The text following the dropcap on the NPC profile page is no longer indented weirdly.
• Fixed NPC gender not changing or refreshing properly when editing.
• Fixed buildings not working in the nav bar.
• Made the profiles just pass the ID as a string, which should be slightly faster.

Fix NPC Profile Bugs

Added

• Flex to button rows so they are a little more responsive on smaller screens.

Changed

• Fixed a bug where the key to roads was being assigned rather than the road itself, resulting in the error in NPCs profile.
• Changed expanded details to use – rather than - so there is less shifting of the text.
• Shifted RiTa to an imported module.
• Fixed the surface level NPC editing issue.

Removed

• SugarCube history has been removed (as it was not being used), which should reduce lag on larger towns.

Fix Generation

Minor release.

Changed

Some Bugs

Added
