    • Fixed a bug in soft resets (players are not unseated) that occur when RESET is pressed during a game,.

    • Slightly adjusted position of cards on table.
  • Version 1.06 [August 2016]:
    • Updated card decks to include an underline below 6 and 9 to make them more easily distinguishable around the table.
  • Version 1.07 [December 2016]:
    • Game can now be started with only one player. I don’t know why, some of you wanted this.
    • Added in missing floating table text at the end of the game.
  • Version 1.08 [January 2018]:
    • Added a new “Win Single” option in admin menu, to make the game end after a single round regardless of points.
    • Set default points to win to 200 instead of 500.
  • Version 2.0.0 [June 2018]
    • Changed to a new multipoint versioning system, so industry standard!
    • Changed permissions from no-copy/transfer to copy/no-transfer!
    • Converted from a Sculpted prim addon theme system to a Mesh themed game rezzer system.
    • New Mesh themes mean that themes can have custom scripting and unique animations in each theme.
    • Games are no longer ‘objects’ and instead are now ‘licenses’ that work on any compatible themed game rezzer.
    • Older ‘object’ based games can be converted to licenses for free by using the migration system in the store.
    • Switched from old Gaming.SL website/backend to entirely new Gaming.SL LIVE website/backend.
    • Addons, achievements, games, and scores can be migrated from old Gaming.SL to new Gaming.SL Live if desired.
    • Entirely new External API system for external/third-party game addons. External API defaults to OFF.
    • Many game settings have been moved from the games to the rezzers now.
    • Updating is now a function of the rezzers, not the games. Updating a rezzer updates all compatible games inside it.
    • New Gaming.SL Live now allows players to log in to the website and change their profiles and view/control their purchased products.
    • New redelivery system available in store and on the website, since games are copy/no-transfer permissions now.
    • Games can now be made PUBLIC and will show up on the website’s LIVE page. All games default to PRIVATE.
    • Updated backend means that all games can have top winners boards even if they have no scoring system, and these wins no longer expire off.
    • New Top Ranked system ranks how well you play against other people based on the game performance of all participants.
    • Games no longer have a ‘hard reset’ where they eject all sitting players. Players can still be ejected from the admin menu if desired.
    • Tournaments are not curently supported on Gaming.SL Live, as nobody used it on the old system. An entirely new in-world based tournament system is being planned.
    • Players are not prevented from sitting down even if they are not allowed to play. They will be added on the next game instead.
  • Version 2.0.1 [July 2018]
    • Fixed a bug where HUDs were disconnecting from the game after the game had ended.
  • Version 2.0.2 [July 2018]
    • Fixed a bug where a table might say “Admin menu is currently in use.” to people who click on the table while playing.
    • Added support for external Leaderboards to lock onto specific game rezzers rather than just specific games.
  • Version 2.0.3 [August 2018]
    • Added the ability to access the MIGRATE system by touching the Gaming.SL logo on the game, rather than having to visit the store.
  • Version 2.0.4 [September 2018]
    • Fixed a bug that was preventing admins added to the rezzer from propagating correctly to the game.
    • Added floating text over the table when the game is unlicensed, and also includes a helpful message for fixing it in the case of improperly shut down games.
    • Added support for Skipee’s HUD requirements into the standard playing card HUD, so it no longer needs a unique HUD.
    • Updated the K.R. Engineering standard playing card HUD. Now has 1/4 of the scripts, and replaced some old non-mesh components. There’s some added functionality as well for some games.
  • Version 2.0.5 [September 2018]
    • Performance improvements to the new Card HUD when running in slow simulators, especially homesteads. Doesn’t hurt for regular regions either.
  • Version 2.0.6 [September 2018]
    • Some updates to the universal card HUD.
  • Version 2.0.7 [November 2018]
    • Added options to have low, medium, or high starting player decks. The default is High (same as previous versions of the game).
  • Version 2.0.8 [January 2019]
    • Card colors have been changed so that all 1-4 cards are blue, 5-8 cards are green, and 9-12 cards are purple. Wild/Skipee cards are orange.
    • Fixed a bug that could cause the admin menu to not timeout correctly.
  • Version 2.0.9 [January 2020]
    • Changed the messaging around the licensing not being loaded to make it less scary.
    • Changed it so that no matter where you click and hold, you always get the rezzer/theme menu first for consistency.
