What's new

The running list of changes to the Dual IRL location-tracker overlay. Newest first.

Public Release

2026-10-15

  • Changed The overlay link builders now put the Your overlay URL box straight under the preview, with every other section moving down one place, and the long explanations in their other sections are a short note with an info button that opens the full text, as in the chat builder's Channels section. (0.1.712)

2026-09-22

  • Fixed The IRL location tracker overlay's map basemap works again with no CARTO API-key-required watermark, switched to a genuinely keyless provider (OpenFreeMap) (0.1.483)

2026-09-10

  • Changed Site tools: every builder's preview now sits above the fold and shows synthetic sample data instantly (before any channel/location is configured), switching to live data with a visible mode indicator once configured (0.1.454)

2026-08-10

  • Added every shared Dual IRL link now shows a branded preview image (Twitter/X, Discord, Slack, etc.) instead of a text-only preview. (0.1.399)
  • Changed every site tool, builder, and the privacy policy page now has a consistent page title and social-share (OG) preview matching the rest of the site. (0.1.398)

2026-08-09

  • Added the IRL location tracker overlay and its builder now support an RTIRL pull key as an alternative position source, for off-device rigs (cloud OBS / BELABOX) that can't read the phone's own GPS directly. (0.1.391)
  • Added the IRL location tracker overlay now has an optional "coarsen" setting that rounds the shown position to a coarser grid (in metres) for extra privacy, on top of the existing home blackout. (0.1.390)

2026-07-18

  • Added A troubleshooting mode (add #debug=1, or tick it in the builder) for the location tracker that shows a small label explaining WHY the map is hidden — waiting for a GPS fix, inside your home blackout, location permission denied, or a stale fix — so a blank overlay is diagnosable instead of a mystery. (0.1.232)
  • Added A builder to configure your location-tracker overlay: set the required private home blackout, choose the map shape, size, screen corner, and zoom, then copy a ready-to-use browser-source URL. (0.1.230)
  • Added A live-location minimap browser-source overlay for IRL streams — a label-free, GTA-style mini-map that follows your device GPS, designed OPSEC-first so it requires a private home blackout and shows nothing until a fix is safe to broadcast. (0.1.229)
