📋 Changes

• improved performance of stamps w/ animated text extension

📋 Changes

• reduced packaged project size by ~400KB
• fixed some large projects not working in some browsers ("Invalid array length")
• fixed performance issues in Animated Text extension when there are a lot of clones being created and deleted
• adds API used by Simple 3D extension to fix performance issues while the mouse is moved while being pressed

📋 Changes

• not much

📋 Changes

• rebuild standalone version with the correct version of the vm

📋 Changes

• fix editing a list monitor causing wrong value to be displayed when that row element is reused later
• fix editing lists in iPhone and iPad
• fix WKWebView projects making beeping noise when any key is pressed
• fix incorrect project behavior when block has variable or list field with a null ID
• add Scratch.canDownload API for extensions (always true in packager)
• attempt to reduce clouddata.turbowarp.org load caused by many Sprunki games having a cloud variable that isn't actually used

📋 Changes

• steamworks extension support
• allow packaged projects to access "private" skins such as webcams

📋 Changes

• Node.js API change: Packager#package()'s return object data property is now always a Uint8Array rather than being either a string or an ArrayBuffer. Depending on what you do with data, this might not actually break anything.
• Node.js API change: The packager now uses @turbowarp/jszip instead of the normal JSZip. It helps projects load faster. This doesn't break anything but it will may add an extra dependency to your tree.
• Added option to hide window controls
• Fixed running very large projects as HTML files in Chrome
• Fixed packaging very large projects as HTML files in Chrome
• Fixed window size for Electron apps using custom stage size
• Fixed error packaging projects that have variables with non-string names. These are technically invalid but sb3fix tolerates it

📋 Changes

• Updated VM with new extension APIs, bug fixes, etc.
• Scratch font is back, sort of. It's been replaced with a new font that looks quite similar but without legal ambiguity
• Allow customizing behavior of escape key
• Fixed WKWebView apps

📋 Changes

• Updated VM with new extension APIs, etc.
• Added support for generating Electron Linux ARM applications
• Generated projects are about 0.5MB smaller than before
• Removed support for the hidden "Scratch" font because we are not confident that we are allowed to redistribute it. You probably aren't allowed to either. (As a workaround, you can use TurboWarp's custom font support, if you want to take that risk. You can find it by searching for the "Boys on mopeds" font.)

• Reduced disk IO on initial page load

📋 Changes

• Fixed extension list not loading properly after it changes
• BREAKING API CHANGE: options.extensions is now just a list of strings, not a list of objects

📋 Changes

• Implemented new custom extension APIs
• Removed variable ID compression for extension compatibility reasons
• More reliable project metadata fetching on school networks

📋 Changes

• Added new extension APIs: Scratch.fetch, Scratch.openWindow, Scratch.redirect, Scratch.canFetch, Scratch.canOpenWindow, Scratch.canRedirect. Unlike the editor, permission is always granted.
• Fixed project compression affecting script execution order in some projects

📋 Changes

• Prevent trying to drag images in control buttons
• Fix "Close window when project stops" in WKWebView
• Fixed an edge case in comparison blocks involving tab characters
• Optimize comparisons involving strings with a numerical value of 0

📋 Changes

• Fixed pause button not pausing audio properly in some browsers when pressed too many times too quickly
• Fixed pause button icon not updating correctly when green flag pressed while paused
• Fixed updating cloud variables with a variable slider (note that this does not work in vanilla Scratch)
• Fixed a few compiler bugs regarding NaN edge cases and hacked color blocks

📋 Changes

• All custom extensions are now run without the extension sandbox
• The packager will attempt to download custom extensions ahead of time so that they will work offline
• The packager will attempt to extract the list of extensions that are stored in the project so you don't have to type them in manually (requires recent version of TurboWarp; for desktop app requires [v1.7.0-beta.0](https://github.com/TurboWarp/desktop/releases/tag/v1.7.0-beta.0) or later)

📋 Changes

• Added list color option.
• Added version number option. The latest version of [TurboWarp Packager Extras](https://github.com/TurboWarp/packager-extras/releases) uses this in installers.
