1.125.8

12.05.2023

  • Add version diff check

1.125.1

12.05.2023

  • Small change to how build numbers work. Minors are now incremented on every notable change of the client, and seen as release versions. Patches (or revisions) are incremented everytime npm run or npm build are run, and are not seen as release versions. This is to make it easier to track changes in the client, and to make it easier to identify which version is running on the server or if there have been alterations since release. This also means that the production build at session.openaudiomc.net will always be one revision ahead compared to git, because it builds a new version in the pipeline. Custom deployments or minor development changes will therefore always be identifiable.

1.125.0

11.05.2023

  • Versions are representative as deployed on session.openaudiomc.net, externally hosted versions may differ.
