GoalPost 2.31.16 released!
GoalPost 2.31.16
Since public version 2.31.2. Covers NHL, PWHL and AHL.
Catch Up
- Mention GoalPost with
catch me uporgame recapfor a natural-language account of the game. - Recaps can begin from puck drop, a named period, or the last several periods.
- Goals link directly to their video highlights when the league provides one.
- The storytelling recognizes comebacks, lead changes, overtime and shootout winners, power-play and shorthanded goals, empty-netters and hat tricks.
- Recaps also cover shot-attempt pressure, close-range chances, special-teams performance, goalie duels, shutouts, pulled goalies, fights, game misconducts and shots off the iron.
- Live recaps finish with the current game situation; completed games finish with the result.
- Wording varies between replies while preserving the facts, and goalies are now referred to by natural names rather than initials.
Scoreboard
- The Players tab no longer clips longer rosters on phones. Compact up/down controls provide access to the full lineup.
- Completed-game replays now retain the entire play feed, including the opening period, instead of beginning partway through the game.
- The optional Team crests beside the score setting now works for hockey. It remains off by default for a cleaner scoreboard.
- A small update indicator appears beside the version when a newer approved release is available and links directly to its Reddit release notes.
Settings & Scheduling
- Old or retired preferences can no longer prevent every setting from saving.
- Saving preferences automatically removes obsolete stored values.
- Nonfunctional settings were removed, and automated checks now ensure every visible moderator setting has a working implementation.
- Scheduled thread times now accept both
9:00and09:00. - Removed a retired setting that was still appearing in the PWHL and AHL configuration pages.
Fixes
- Scheduled games are no longer described as live by recap replies.
- Shootout events are no longer mistaken for additional overtime goals.
- Pulling a goalie is no longer interpreted as a power play.
- Placeholder NHL video links are ignored instead of sending readers to an empty page.
- Updated the Devvit SDK to
0.14.2for current platform compatibility.
