Another patch to fix some minor issues in the backend!

There was no change to the Plugins or Templates in this release; just bumped the versions​

Bug Fixes​

• [Backend] Fixed packaging for macOS Dev Initiator on Apple Silicon (macOS + Intel CPUs are not supported without purchasing source code)
• [Backend] Allow spaces in your project folder (specifically fixed an issue for deploying to Kubernetes)
• [Backend] Updated the default DigitalOcean vm-type in config/node/default/deployment/kubernetes/_index.yaml

Quick patch release to fix a few minor issues!

Bug Fixes​

• [Plugins] Fixes a compiler error related to a missing include in RedwoodGameStateComponent.cpp
• [Backend/Plugins] Fixes issue with characters spawning in the wrong location based on old zone transfer transform
• [Backend] Prevent characters from opening multiple matchmaking/queuing tickets; subsequent Join calls will be ignored if a ticket is open
• [Backend] Fix issue where endedAt columns for the various game server tables were not being populated when the server instance and/or proxy stopped
• [Backend] Fixes issue with deploying the match-function service to Kubernetes

New Features​

• We now have a Friends system! You can search for players by username or nickname, request, respond, block, and get the connection/online status of friends; the RPG Template comes with an example widget (activated via the crate interactable in-game)
• Redwood now creates an admin user by default via configuration which is automatically used by the CLI tools
• You can create normal, non-admin users from the CLI
• You can configure a default proxy for a realm and use the new create-default-proxy CLI command, which optionally can be automatically started when the backend boots up
• There's a new SetCharacterArchived function in the UE plugin and example in the RPG template for (un)archiving characters; eventually archived characters will be deleted from the DB after the configured archival period
• All Realm Instance Configs will now inherit from config/node/default/realm/instances/redwoodBase.yaml which makes creating multiple realms much easier now
• We've improved the organization of the docs and continue to regularly add more documentation

Quick patch release to fix a few minor issues!

Bug Fixes​

• [RPG Template] If you downloaded 3.0.1, there were 2 lines of code in Source/ProjectNameClient.Target.cs and Source/ProjectNameServer.Target.cs that would prevent you from opening it up in a non-source version of UE. You can ignore this is you don't have this issue.
• [Backend (Dev Initiator)] Fixed an error about not finding the "prisma" executable, introduced in 3.0.0

New Features​

• [Backend (Dev Initiator)] When running with the Dev Initiator, UE servers will now use a deterministic set of ports 7000-7099 (inclusive) which makes it easier to make firewall and port forwarding rules

We released a live playable demo of our RPG Template, so you can play with it before downloading the project yourself!

This coincides with the Redwood 3.0.1 release which fixes several bugs and is more robust 💪; checkout the full details below!

New Features​

• We now have a cross-server synchronization system with the use of Sync Items (formally known as Persistent Items; you can still persist Sync Items)
• We upgraded our database ORM Prisma to add support for cuid2 IDs, and changed the defaults to use cuid2 for ID generation which brings more secure IDs (though we weren't using them in an unsecure way before)
• We've released a public mirror of the documentation so if something catastrophic happens that would result in this website going down, you'll still have access to the full documentation
• We've enabled Standard Licenses to package the Match Function when using Open Match
• We made the process for customizing the Match Function more modular so you create a new class instead of modify the one provided in the source (which would cause merge conflicts)
• We changed the example of the World Data in the RPG Template
• Standard Licenses can now use the Dev Initiator on macOS and Linux

This release fixes an issue with the yarn dev command and attempts to fix issues with admin accounts when only using Steam auth provider.
