Release Notes for 348

[wravager]

Added a property to the ScreenGui which allows developers to ignore the inset from the top bar.

So no more -35 offset ???

[Maximum_ADHD]

Yeah it definitely wasn’t intended.

We don’t want people adding tags to these classes because they are stored locally, and there’s no arbitrary limit (afaik) to how many tags you can serialize into an object.

[Maximum_ADHD]

Correct. It’s actually -36, but that’s close enough

[TheNexusAvenger (Nexus)]

There is probably 1 person who was planning to flood either the memory or storage of a low end device like a 16 GB iPhone 5S. Good to see this “hack” is no longer a possible “hack” as unreliable as it would be with Studio open.

I assume Humanoid:GetBodyPartR15 and Humanoid:ReplaceBodyPartR15 are some of the first steps into the new avatar customization stuff on the roadmap?

[Maximum_ADHD]

These functions were added to make it easier to replace R15 limbs.
The Humanoid is very picky about limbs being switched out during run-time, especially with the neck joint.

Add a reliable method for swapping out R15 packages without killing the Humanoid

As a Roblox developer, it is currently incredibly painful to switch out R15 limbs, due to the peskiness of our friend the Humanoid. Whenever the neck joint is removed, the Humanoid’s dead state gets immediately triggered. While in the dead state, all joints are forcefully broken during every single physics step. So if you try to create new joints, they usually disappear before you can revive the Humanoid. Now you might think that we can work around this by using SetStateEnabled, but heres wher…

[Maximum_ADHD]

On an unrelated note, one of my features shipped with this update!

Ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty

[EncodedLua (Juniper)]

YAY, PROPERTY ICONS! Are there icons for more properties than Terrain colors, or just those for now?

[MetaProx]

Weird, I always kinda liked that little message. Oh well.

Edit: On a Side note, thanks for all the quality of life updates, didn’t mean to sound disappointed there.

[Maximum_ADHD]

Just for these.

[DeveloperColton]

Awesome!

[Mikastrae (Mikayla)]

All of these updates are amazing.

[woot3 (Woot)]

Woah, there’s some really cool additions in this one!

[PeZsmistic]

This issue wasted five hours of my life once and I’m glad it’s fixed, because it’s directly in the way of my workflow.

[TheRings0fSaturn (SaturianNightmare)]

Now that we have more humanoid options and such - can we have an option to make it so the Humanoid’s body parts aren’t forcefully set to cancollide true / false?

[sleitnick]

Improved the precision of CFrame replication, reducing angular error by ~10x on average and ~5x in the worst case.

Yeeeesss

[Noble_Draconian]

Why? I preferred having this in my output.

Also, is this purple text being removed?

I really like knowing when it auto-saves.

[Anaminus]

Added a property to the ScreenGui which allows developers to ignore the inset from the top bar.

Is this a step towards removing the terrible dual coordinate system entirely?

[buildthomas]

I believe one of the particular use cases that this was made for is teleport screens. During teleports, the topbar goes away and reappears later, which changes the inset of ScreenGuis. By turning this off, you would get consistent positioning of your UI elements on your teleport screens.
