It looks like regardless of your account settings it will always say “In Studio” and not the place name, and that makes the most sense to me (if you want people to know what you’re working on, you’ll tell them instead of having them constantly stalk what you’re working on)
I would imagine it would be visible to Spacek since I have him on my friends list, and I have my setting to following me ingame set to friends, so he should see “Online - Some game”, instead of “Online - Ingame”, so he should see what I am doing in studio unless it is supposed to be just studio for everyone no matter what settings.
If I set my follow settings to none, my alt that I’m friends with can’t see which place I’m working on:
Regardless or not whether the staff agree with showing the exact place someone is working on in studio being unnecessary (if you want them to know you’d tell them), it would be nice if it were a separate setting. I want my friends to be able to follow me in-game but not be able to see what places I’m working on.
I’m agree with you it can be boring, but it can also make your players happy to see an update is coming. For example, when I wasn’t a dev, I liked a lot the game Slap Battles. And one day I viewed the profile of the creator, @Tencelll. I was soo happy when I saw he was developing the game! So in my opinion this feature shouldn’t be deleted.
As far as I know, this was solved. If you have your joins off and are in-studio, it does not provide the game name you are currently working on on your profile. However, feel free to correct me if I’m wrong…
Yes, you can do that, but the feature we want to see implemented is a separate option for this so that we can let people join us in experiences, but not be able to see what we’re working on in Studio.
Bumping this since it’s been recently re-introduced. Please give us an option to not show others our activity on studio other than completely turning off joins.
