Flycast Dojo 6.32 includes bug fixes and features based on the feedback of the last Fightcade release. Test Game now loads all button and system definitions for the target game upon launch, and system selection is disabled in the controller mapping menu when a game is loaded to prevent player confusion.

Many Lua functions were also added to give the modding community a head start in making interesting Training scripts in Flycast Dojo. You can now read signed integers and floats from memory, read frame number, draw color progress bars, as well as draw lines and rectangles for hitboxes. Special thanks to N-Bee, mountainmanjed, & Magnetro for suggestions and help.

Lastly, for those of you who want to stay on your controller during Training Mode dummy recording, I added buttons for cycling between input slots, playing, and recording your selection. They can be found in the Training Mode section of your Controller Mapping settings.

This release fixes Match Code & Relay launching from command line, the Windows internal updater to accept new releases, allows games without savestates to be played online again, and cleans up integration details needed for matchmaking frontends. Special thanks to Ren, ToastRider, & pof for reporting bugs, integration, and debugging assistance.

Flycast Dojo 6.26 introduces a new connection method: relay servers. For users on networks where a direct P2P connection over Match Codes do not work, relay servers will allow you to tunnel all game traffic through a server visible by both parties on the open internet. Just point to your server of choice, and exchange codes with your opponent like you would with Match Codes. This should serve as an alternative to Fightcade's own tunnels or using a Virtual LAN with Direct IP.

New UI changes where also made in this go-around. All modes and connection methods are now available in the drop-down on the main menu, and helpful description text is available for each selection. Icons now adorn the interface, and the netplay flow has been cleaned up for all connection methods.

Since this is the first release with relays, this will be the first time they will be tested in the wild. I have put up 7 servers around the world according to the most active regions where Match Codes have been used. Once relays are in a solid place, I'll be releasing the server code so that people can host their own. Server capacity and new locations will be determined after initial testing and feedback of what is up now. (An extra special thanks to our Patreon contributors, who make server deploys possible!)

In future releases, I plan on combining the hole punching used in Match Codes with relays through automatic detection. In the mean time, you can start with Match Codes and switch over to a relay when that doesn't work.
