Release Notes for 654

Hey all, 654 is out! This is the last set of release notes I’ll be posting here in 2024—who knows what other people might post—so I wish each and every one of you the very best as we move into the new year. See you in 2025!

Are user-defined type funcs available in engine yet, or is it still in alpha and locked behind an experimental flag.

EditableMesh now works better with perfect planes

Is this related to an EditableMesh with vertices aligned to a plane such that a MeshPart created from it will not render and have size 0.001 in an axis?

Example of MeshPart that will not render
local AssetService = game:GetService("AssetService")

local mesh = AssetService:CreateEditableMesh()
local v1 = mesh:AddVertex(Vector3.zero)
local v2 = mesh:AddVertex(Vector3.zAxis)
local v3 = mesh:AddVertex(Vector3.xAxis)

--If this line is uncommented, the MeshPart will render as expected
--local unusedVertex = mesh:AddVertex(Vector3.new(0,1,0))

mesh:AddTriangle(v1, v2, v3)

local meshPart = AssetService:CreateMeshPartAsync(Content.fromObject(mesh))
meshPart.Anchored = true
meshPart.Parent = workspace

Also, always wondered what the “Status” label on the release notes meant. Are these always accurate? Seems like you can go back pretty far into release notes history and still see “Pending”.

Yes, but there is absolutely zero autocomplete for them. The new solver is also too buggy right now to properly do anything with them.

Experiences can be published with user-defined type functions used in them.

We are still working to fix a few things, notably calling one type function from another is unfortunately broken and generic functions cannot be processed.
Other than that, standalone type functions should work within those current limitations and can be exported as well.

Roblox vr menu is broken I think because of this update
It’s only an issue with meta quest
I tried it on pcvr it works fine
