Oh - and one thing that wasn't in the release notes... we bumped up the Design Portal session timeout -- so if you go away from the portal and come back to it later -- there's a better chance that you can pick up from where you left off (instead of being booted and having to re-login).

Hi folks,

FYI, here's one minor update regarding the Retention Analytics screen:

We have changed it to show Classic retention by default.

The reason for the change is that Rolling Retention naturally trends downward over the 30-day period of the report. That's simply due to mathematics. Rolling retention for a particular day measures whether the user returns that day - or any day thereafter. Thus - the days at the end of the calendar period have fewer days after them - and so the stat will naturally be lower.

We don't want folks to mistakenly think their retention is trending down - so we're now defaulting to Classic Retention which is more deterministic over the 30 day period. For those who wish to view the Rolling Retention - it's just a mouse click away!

Cheers!

Paul.

Yup. We as devs often resist change. Hopefully you'll come to appreciate Portal-X as you use it more!

@Brad-Hester That bug has been fixes (and patched). Thanks for reporting it!

Hi Panagiotis,

Thanks for the feedback!

That vertical icon bar on the far left is new in 5.2. It was key to allowing us to free up more space - moving the Debug + Log screens to their own pane. (i.e. now the screen is only ever split vertically in 2 - instead of sometimes split into 4 pains - 2 verticle and 2 horizontal).

The font scale and tab size options were there before too - but are somewhat more discoverable now that we have that cog wheel.

Glad you like the changes!

And brainCloud 5.1 is now live. Let us know what you think!

oh already posted! I want to know about godot support plan

Update: this has now been fixed!

Note - brainCloud will now send over the first part of your email address as the suggested username for the forums. The forums will automatically append a number if there are others with that username.

You can update/customize your username by clicking on your profile in the top-right, and choose Edit Profile.
There you will find a bunch of info you can customize about your user account.

Click Change Username on that screen to change your username itself.

Hope that helps!

Paul.

Hi @Panagiotis-Milios ,

Yup - we made improvements to the Entity Viewer(s) partially based on your feedback. There are more improvements to come as well.

We're also looking at the Job Queue screen - and I've passed the Ctrl-S request onto the Cloud Code Editor dev... I definitely agree with that - it's a reflex for lots of folks (including me!).

Paul.

Update 3 - okay - the networking optimization is back in place now.

(Though we haven't turned it on for the Portals yet - just want to ensure there aren't any issues first...)

Paul.

And brainCloud 4.9 is live!

Let us know if you have questions or issues!

Paul.
