From Compile Worlds

Revision as of 23:29, 4 May 2012

This is the changelog for Kawachat. It was started only at the release of v0.5.1, so previous changes or release dates are not listed.

As of version 0.7, Kawachat was renamed to TIMP (Team Ikaria Messaging Protocol) WebChat and moved to http://timp.im/ .

TIMP WebChat 0.8.1 (May 4, 2012)

• Feature: /cue is now a command. Follow it with a YouTube URL (or video ID).
• Feature: Official characters are now grouped under their own pseudo-"user", and anyone can claim and edit them.

TIMP WebChat 0.8 (February 19, 2012)

• Change: The default theme is now Dark again, and links in the Dark theme appear in a more easily readable yellow.
• Feature: Persistent login cookie; you no longer have to login again when reloading the client or visiting again on the same computer and browser. There is also a logout button to remove this cookie.
• Feature: The client automatically reloads when an updated version is released.
• Feature: When users reload the client, that now appears as one message instead of a logout/login pair (and it no longer plays a sound effect).
• Feature: When messages arrive when the client does not have focus, they get recorded in the title bar so you can easily see if anything's happened while doing something else.
• Feature: User list will now show the length of users' posts as they type them.

TIMP WebChat 0.7 (December 1, 2011)

• Feature: Channels! Like, finally.
  • Only people invited to a channel can access it.
  • Currently there is no way to invite people to a channel, but this will be added ASAP.
  • You will hear sounds for messages on other channels even when they're not active.
  • You'll also show up as logged in for all channels on your channel list, even before you've opened them.
  • Characters and logs are specific to channels.
• Feature: You can now change the theme (between Normal and Dark) whenever you like, using the dropdown in the top right.
• Feature: Character creation and edits are now logged and displayed.
• Feature: Characters can now have statuses. For example, you could give Sig the status of "Sleeping".

Kawachat 0.6.2 (September 8, 2011)

• Fix: People who log out while nobody else is online will now have their log-out message recorded at the correct time, not the time that the next person logs in.
• Feature: Kawachat will now offer a tablet version to clients detected as Android 3.x. Use ?device=tablet to force this version, or ?device=desktop to force the standard version. Note that the tablet version requires touch events to function correctly.

Kawachat 0.6.1 (August 30, 2011)

• Fix: Logging out now removes you from the user list of other users within 2 minutes, instead of remaining there for ages.
• Fix: Claiming a character now sets them as active, and unclaiming a character sets your user as active.
• Feature: Logging in, logging out, claiming and unclaiming now have log messages, and logging in/out also plays sounds.

Kawachat 0.6 (August 20, 2011)

• Change: Lots of internal rewriting. Fixes bugs with Firefox and /some/ bugs with IE, and uses the TI library.
• Feature: Sounds when messages are sent/received (doesn't work in IE).

Kawachat 0.5.2.1 (July 10, 2011)

• Joke Feature: The title now changes to a name chosen randomly from a particular set.

Kawachat 0.5.2 (April 16, 2011)

• Fix: Character management buttons now don't log you out on Chrome.

Kawachat 0.5.1 (January 26, 2011)

• Fix: Newer versions of Firefox (3.6.13 and above) have different (possibly buggy) caching behaviour to previous versions, which caused a bug in Kawachat due to the language file being loaded "instantly". This new caching behavior has been worked around.
• Feature: Use a double backtick (``) followed by a word to insert a symbol. Currently there are only three symbols available this way: star => ☆, heart => ♥ and note => ♪; more may be added later.

Kawachat 0.5

• Feature: New character management GUI.
