Logic Worlds Release Delayed again.

I felt it was appropriate to make a video about this rather than just writing a blog post. This is a major bummer, but its whats necessary for the game.
Amazing New Displays - Jimmy
Ive been working on an overhaul of Displays, to make them faster and easier to use. Its not quite done yet, but I wanted to show it off in a video anyways.

These new displays use the Extra Data system I described
last week, and indeed they are the main reason for that system existing.
Cloud metrics - Felipe
This week Ive been working on adding some metrics to our cloud architecture. Metrics is a generic word for anything that gives us information, which in our case is a set of applications.
First we have
Traefik, which is the application that you connect to when you go to
logicworld.net and that routes your connection to the back-end services. Traefik can produce some metrics, which
Prometheus collects. Prometheus can be considered as sort of a metrics database, which stores the data it collects from the various sources and allows you to query it. Finally, we have
Grafana, which is the front-end for all of this and allows us to create cool dashboards like these:

Im also working on adding metrics tailored to the site itself, like comment count, post count, etc.
Extensible Menu Settings - Jimmy
Many menus in Logic World have a popup window to edit menu settings; you can see it in
this recent video. Previously, all menus only had one setting, the scale slider, and the menu settings system was tightly coupled to the menu resizing system.
This week Ive overhauled Menu Settings so that theyre more independent and open to extension. Any menu can add custom settings now.
Currently Menu Settings still arent being used for anything besides the Scale sliders, but I have plans for a few custom menu settings. Youll likely see those next week :)
---------------------------------------------
We'll keep releasing these weekly updates right up until the game comes out. To make sure you don't miss them, you can
sign up for our newsletter or join the
official Discord, and of course you can wishlist and follow the game right here on Steam.
