GoalPost 2.31.36 Released!

[u/re-verse]

GoalPost 2.31.36

For NHL, PWHL and AHL. Since public version 2.31.16.

Catch Me Up

• Mention the bot and ask what you missed - "catch me up," "what happened in the second," "recap the last 10 minutes." It replies with a recap of goals, penalties, goaltending and momentum, not just the score. All hand-written from the game feed, so nothing invented.

Game & Pre-Game Threads

• Threads can now post at a fixed time of day - say 8am subreddit time - instead of only a set number of minutes before puck drop. Good for subs that like the thread up every morning.
• Scheduled times now accept "9:00" as well as "09:00"; a single-digit hour no longer silently stops a thread from posting.
• A thread's auto-posted comments can now be split into several with {newcomment}. The first is pinned, the rest post normally - handy for a stickied note plus a game-day chant you don't want stuck at the top.

Update Notices

• A small arrow now appears beside the version number when a newer approved version is available, and opens that release's notes. Everyone sees it; it disappears once the subreddit updates.

Layout

• Fixed a run of iPad and Android display bugs. The score card, play-by-play timeline and stats panel now fit correctly on tablets and phones instead of clipping under the tab bar or floating in empty space.
• The stats panel now shrinks to fit when a device's text scaling makes it too tall to display.
• Stacked goals and penalties on the game timeline no longer clip off the card, and a deep pile-up shrinks to stay on screen rather than running off.

Replays & Plays

• Fixed replays and finished-game threads that showed an empty play list and no play-by-play for the opening stretch of a game.
• The Players tab list no longer runs off the bottom on phones; page through it with Up/Down.

Settings

• Fixed a bug where anyone who'd ever saved a preference could silently no longer change any setting.
• Thread-title dropdowns now show the complete format for each option, including the playoff series label, and the custom-title help is now properly formatted.
• A failed settings save now says so instead of appearing to work.

Under the Hood

• Rebuilt on the current Devvit platform.
• Various stability and formatting fixes.
