v0.10.0 Released - Mostly Housekeeping (Patreon)

This morning I'm hesitantly releasing v0.10.0. There's a lot of behind-the-scenes updates that were a bit overdue, but it has a couple extra cool features... Well, sorta. Read on for more details.

First, a Keeper-requested feature! As you can see in the screenshot above, we now have a download option at the bottom of generated and saved shops. This give you a CSV that you can import into Google Sheets or Excel or your spreadsheet tool of choice. I hope that's helpful!

Second, I added a subtle improvement to the shareable aspect of your shops. Each shop now has the ability to generate its own Open Graph image, which is basically the image that appears in Facebook, Slack, or whatever sharing tool you have that offers a link preview. So the image itself will have (1) the name of the shop, and (2) the shopkeeper's image (assuming you're a Keeper). Pretty cool stuff. See below for an example from my campaign.

Sadly, this feature was dead on arrival. After deploying the new version, I found out that my current hosting platform (which has been excellent to date) can't handle some of the advanced stuff I'm trying to do to accomplish this (I misread some of the fine print).

So I'll be on the hunt for a new host, at which point I'll have greater control over the environment. It also means increased effort and expenses, though, so I'm going to take some time to decide. Plus, frankly, I just don't want to deal with a migration right this second. Forgive my weakness.

Still, once the switch happens, I'll re-enable this feature (which is so cool, you guys [read in a Jester voice]), and we'll all enjoy it together.

In the meantime, thanks as always for your support, and may your games be magical.
