AWBW Changelog
Revision Description Date
518 The timer for live games has been updated to better sync between players after AETs. This should fix a bug where multiple end turn events were repeatedly displayed, eventually leading to 503 errors. 2023-11-26
517 New options have been added to Live Queue for matchmaking. An information page has also been added to provide more details on the new options. 2023-11-19
516 Profile medals have been added for the winners of tournament divisions 2+. Thanks to Jay Embee for the medal designs! 2023-11-14

514 The old game interface has been disabled. The new 'refreshless' interface can now be found on game.php instead of 2030.php. NOTE: User-made extensions may break as a result of this update! 2023-11-02
513 The FAQ has been updated with information on live queue, color-blind mode, teleport tiles, and the design map editor updates. Thanks to Aryafireheart for the reminder. 2023-11-02
512 Fixed a bug where tower counts were not properly displayed when loading a design map in the editor, and another bug where the asymmetry checker did not work properly when resizing a map with diagonal symmetry selected. Thanks to TheGamerASD for the reports. 2023-11-02
511 The interface for exploding black bombs and firing missiles has been improved for mobile users. 2023-11-02
510 Several new features have been added to the design map editor. Thanks to GamerASD, as many of these features were inspired by his extension.
- Maps up to 50x50 are now supported in the on-site editor. This also fixes the bug where edits could not be made after the 1333rd tile on a map.
- A resize feature has been added, allowing a column or row to be added or removed in any direction.
- The map can now be saved without refreshing the page.
- An auto-save feature has been added (1-5 minute intervals, or OFF).
- Auto-symmetry checking has been added.

509 The design map editor has been updated to allow teleport tiles to be placed. Note that predeployed units can not be placed on teleport tiles! 2023-10-30
508 Teleport tiles have been added as an official supported feature, replacing the previous 'black tiles'. Teleport tiles function as a 0-cost tile that units cannot land on or have vision on, and units traveling over them will appear to teleport from the first to last tile in the chain.

NOTE: All maps containing the old black tiles will be converted to use teleport tiles -- this may take a few hours! Contact walkerboh01 after that if you have an unconverted map.
