Release Notes for 639

Greetings Creators!
Release 639 has landed! I’m drawing a blank on anything clever to tie to AD 639, June 1939, or otherwise, so I’ll leave it at this: :smile:

We use this pretty heavily for our platformer character controller, nice to see perf improvements there!

… did anybody really want this besides Roblox? Please let us opt out of telemetry this is extremely invasive

Waiting for them to make it where Humanoid:GetPlayingAnimationTracks and Animator:GetPlayingAnimationTracks returns {AnimationTrack}

This change is absolutely revolutionary, I’m sure me giving more data to Roblox will change the platform for the better! Please take all my data Roblox!

(ps dont look at the disassembled Toolbox builtin, almost every action sends a telemetry event)

I mean surely giving our display sizes it will help them find all the performance issues studio has all these years and optimize it!

But in all seriousness, if you’re a developer on this platform and devexing you’re pretty much already required to give as much info as you can.

Is there any reason these are being added?

Most specifically, “remote desktop”, why?

Also, 4th time now?

This isn’t super specific to this particular update, but why do previous changes from previous logs show up, and why are so many marked as “Pending”?

There’s usually only 1-2 actual live changes, and I don’t think these are actually “release notes”. Hoping someone will correct me on this though :sob:

Been trying to understand this for the longest time when reading change logs and I couldn’t ever figure out why it’s done this way.

because it helps devs know what changed and has a record of it, it is very useful

it’s great that they are transparent about it

and it’s probably not useful for you if you don’t understand it

also pending means it’s done but not released to public (probably), it’s not serious

The display size are probably so the Studio team can prepare for things like responsive design to see how many users use things like small size displays like on laptops.

That does not make this a good change and I encourage everybody to use an app like AdGuard or Pi-hole to prevent collection of this
