Patch Notes

🛠️ What's Fixed & Updated:

• Theme Rendering Resolved: Addressed a bug where custom UI themes (like the Classic Mode) were missing critical layout parameters, preventing backgrounds and borders from displaying properly on the public schedule boards.
• Comprehensive Mobile Support: Fixed scaling and overlapping issues across multiple pages. The Command Center, Account Settings, and Public Network Directory will now dynamically stack and format flawlessly on all mobile and tablet devices.
• Custom Domain Engine Overhaul: We have introduced a brand new internal API and modernized our backend Nginx routing. This ensures much smoother SaaS integrations and faster SSL handshakes when linking your airline's personal web domains to your planners.

This is a massive update focused on overhauling our platform's security, fulfilling our legal compliance requirements (UK GDPR), and dramatically expanding how you can create and manage airlines.

🔐 Security & Account Management:

• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): You can now secure your account with an Authenticator app! This completely locks down your dashboard. (Note: The rollout of this feature caused the brief API downtime experienced last week).
• Right to Erasure: In compliance with UK Law, you can now permanently delete your account and all associated personal data at any time via the Settings page.
• Data Portability: You can now securely download a JSON copy of all your personal data and workspace configurations.
• Terms of Service: We have officially published our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy for full legal transparency.

🚀 Roblox Direct Access:

• Roblox OAuth Login: You no longer need a Discord account to use Richard Productions! You can now log in directly using your Roblox account to create and manage personal workspaces.
• "RBLX" Workspaces: Planners created via Roblox login will now generate unique IDs starting with RBLX rather than standard numeric IDs.

🎨 Dashboard & Planner Upgrades:

• Theme Presets: Don't like the default colors? We've added several pre-made color themes (Midnight, Emerald, Amethyst, etc.) that you can instantly apply to your public flight planner.
• Custom Colors: You can now completely customize the hex colors of your flight planner to match your airline's exact branding.
• Enhanced Dashboard Cards: The Command Center has been redesigned! Workspace cards now display the ID, the Platform Type (Discord vs. Roblox), the Creation Date, and the Owner at a glance.
• Workspace Naming: You can now natively rename your workspaces directly from the settings panel, making it much easier to tell your airlines apart.
• Global Announcement System: We've completely overhauled how system notices are displayed. Previously, adding a site-wide alert required manual code updates and caused brief downtime. We have now built a dynamic announcement engine that allows us to instantly broadcast important updates across the entire network seamlessly!

The wait is finally over! The official Richard Productions Flight Planner in-game UI and highly-secure API engine are now live and ready to be integrated straight into your Roblox games.

🚀 What's New in this Release:

• Roblox Server Engine Enabled: The official Script.luau server module is now fully live and available to download. This script securely links your Roblox place to your Web Dashboard, fetching dynamic flights, custom music, and live configurations.
• Roblox In-Game UI Released: The Flight Planner.rbxl Studio template is here! Follow the provided instructions to insert the UI into your game, apply the loader script, and watch your schedules sync automatically.
• Global Timezone Support: You can now fully customize the timezone display for your flight schedules directly from your dashboard's Global Settings (e.g., UTC, EST, GMT, etc.), ensuring your passengers arrive on time, anywhere in the world.
• Smart Version Control: Your Operations Manager dashboard now actively tracks your Roblox script versions in real-time. If you are running an outdated script, a download prompt will appear. Once you replace the files in Studio and run the game, the dashboard will automatically clear the warning within 5 minutes!

🛠️ Bug Fixes:

• Database Synchronization: Resolved minor backend bugs that caused delays when pushing data edits from the Web Dashboard into the live Roblox game servers.

We are deploying a small quality-of-life update to clean up how your browser navigates the dashboard, alongside a crucial security adjustment for URL parameters.

🛡️ What's New in this Patch:

• Secure Authentication Routing: Addressed a critical security vulnerability where the Auth Code and Secret Key were visibly passed through the URL. Both keys are now strictly handled via encrypted local session storage, completely removing them from the URL bar to prevent accidental leakage.
• Clean URLs (Production): We have optimized our live server routing to completely remove the .html extension from all page links, resulting in a cleaner, much more professional browsing experience.

Hello everyone,

We are deploying a mandatory security hotfix to our backend to ensure your airline data remains strictly protected and isolated. This update introduces a highly secure "Two-Factor" authentication bridge between our database and your dashboards.

🛡️ What's New in this Patch:

• Backend Security Overhaul: We have completely updated our API architecture. All database requests now require a dynamically generated AuthCode (Bearer Token). This guarantees that absolutely no one can randomly access, view, or alter your flight planner data without possessing your unique 21-character authorization key.
• Frontend Dashboard Sync: The Web Dashboard (Command Center) has been fully upgraded to support these new API backend security features. All your workspaces will now automatically generate, save, and transmit these secure tokens seamlessly behind the scenes.
• "Workspace Not Found" Fix: We have resolved the temporary dashboard errors caused by the rollout of these strict security rules. All existing workspaces are fully secured, and no data was lost during this system transition.

Hi all,

Today marks the highly anticipated public release of the Richard Productions Flight Planner! I want to extend a massive thank you to all of our dedicated beta testers for relentlessly testing features, pushing the limits, and providing invaluable feedback over the last few days.

🚀 Main Features Released Today:

• Web Dashboard: A fully centralized command center where you can view, manage, and oversee all of your airline workspaces with ease.
• Custom Domains (Pro): Elevate your airline's branding by securely linking your very own custom domain (e.g., flights.yourairline.com) directly to your public flight planner, complete with automated SSL generation!
• Roblox Integration: Seamlessly link your Roblox and Discord accounts to verify your identity and sync your profile across the entire public network.
• Multiple Flight Planners: Scale your operations! You can now generate, manage, and switch between multiple distinct flight planners for different guilds under a single account.
• Web Flight Planner: Our sleek, public-facing schedule board is officially live. Share your unique links with passengers so they can track flight dates, gate info, and hosts in real-time.
• Robust API: The core engine powering everything—delivering lightning-fast, rate-limited, and secure database syncing.
• Light & Dark Mode: Whether you prefer the sleek dark aesthetic or a clean light interface, you can now toggle your preferred theme across the entire application.

🛡️ Bug Fixes & Security (Thanks Beta Testers!):

• Account Security: Patched vulnerabilities to ensure strict Discord authentication checks, preventing unauthorized access to workspaces you don't own.
• Backend Console Exploit: Secured critical endpoints to prevent malicious actors from using browser developer tools to alter database limits, tier statuses, or bypass premium lockouts.
• API Issues: Resolved various timeout and connection drops experienced during peak beta load, significantly stabilizing our database queries.

Building this platform has been an incredible journey, and this is only just the beginning. Thank you for your patience, support, and for choosing Richard Productions to automate your airline. Clear skies ahead! ✈️
