Platform Release v0.46.1

[connorjak]

This new Space Teams PRO version has been released and is available for download on spaceteamspro.com.

Space Teams PRO releases that start with 0. are all Beta releases, meaning we have relaxed standards for stability, performance, and backwards compatibility as we quickly introduce new features. Please contact us directly (support@SimDynamX.com) if you are interested in using Space Teams in an environment where software stability is critical.

Most notable changes since v0.45.2:

Logging

• Compute_Server log files now go into the AppData folder
  • Typically C:\Users\yourself\AppData\Local\SimDynamX\STPro\Logs
• Instead of being labeled by the sim name, logs folders are named with this pattern:
  • YYMMDD_HHMMSS_SimName__<first 3 hex values of sim-run UUID>
• Latest 20 log folders are kept

More robust connect-to-sim

• Should fix some intermittent failure-to-connect issues, especially for Python Systems
• May also fix some issues with sims crashing while ending

Visualization tools

• visualization namespace changed to vis
• Added point-list generator helper functions

General

• New demo "Mars Rover Driving"
• PhysEffect better netcode implementation
• Unreal popup errors now more reliably limited to one pop-up per sim
• Better error handling for Unreal GMRAD crashes
• Less cases where UI tools can cause an Unreal crash
