Remember this is a Beta release meant for testing and bugs are expected, everything is also prone to change a lot. If you’re using it to release a game, you should warn your players as chances are it will eventually break.

๐Ÿ“ฐ Release Change Log#

๐ŸŒŸ New Features#

  • Placeholder actions can now receive arguments when generating an action dynamically:
'$ _myAction something something'
monogatari.$ ('_myAction', (arg1, arg2) => {
    return `${arg1} ${arg2}`;
});

๐Ÿ› Bug Fixes#

  • Music volume preference would not have any effect on the main menu ambient music
  • Some actions that caused the game to proceed automatically to the next statement such as videos with the close property, would not proceed and required an extra click
  • Setting the volume to 0 would in some cases cause an error when playing an audio asset using the fade property
  • Side images sizing was not consistent and characters name would scroll along the text. The text-box component has been restructured to prevent this. If you have a custom text-box implementation, you might want to check the new structure and styling.

๐Ÿ“ฆ Misc#

  • Dependencies have been upgraded to their latest version
  • The npm package has been updated to this latest version
  • A license file is now being distributed in the engine directory
  • Added maskable icon indicator on manifest file
  • Updated electron script settings
  • Added new permission request for persistent storage to prevent data from being deleted when a device is low on storage space

How To Upgrade#

If you were already using a previous release from v2.x.x, then upgrading is as simple as replacing the files in your engine directory with the new ones.

If you are planning to upgrade from a game made with the v1.4.1 release, we recommend you reading the Upgrade Guide
