v0.6.0 (2026-10-11)

Full Changelog Previous Releases

• Release 0.6.0: promote validated 0.6.0-beta.1 to stable
• Promote 0.6.0-alpha.1 to 0.6.0-beta.1 after in-game alpha testing
• Cleanup pass for 0.6.0-alpha.1
  • Fix stray duplicate } in Modules/DadJokes.lua (load-breaking)
  • Normalize GetChecked() to real booleans on every read/write in Config.lua
  • Split Config:BuildModuleContent into widget factories and section helpers
  • Rename local DB to Manager in Config.lua and Database.lua
  • Hoist prefix templates to PREFIX_TEMPLATES; derive MAX_CONTENT_ENTRY_LENGTH
    from the longest template instead of hardcoding 195
  • Extract BuildMessage / RecordUsage / PlaySelectedSound in Core.lua and share
    the instance/raid/party branch between the automatic trigger and manual commands
  • Add DatabaseManager:InvalidateCache and read-only GetContentCount
  • RegisterModule prints instead of error() at load time
  • Capture the cooldown number once; drop redundant for k, _ in pairs
  • Centralize the default sound as Dadabase.DefaultSound
  • Reuse a scratch table in GetRandomContent
  • README: correct the message-splitting claim (lines are skipped on save,
    messages are truncated on send); CODE_REVIEW statuses updated
• 0.6.0-alpha.1 fixes: vertical tab gutter, per-module start-up breakdown, deletion migration, docs
  • Config.lua: tab bar moved to a left gutter (fixes 6-tab overflow); editor/divider/prefix
    input widths reduced to fit; ShowTab matches the settings tab by identity, not index;
    pooling help line added to each content tab; About + Interface Options text updated
  • Core.lua: per-module descriptor word pools (guild quotes get 'pearls of wisdom' style
    words); start-up message prints a per-module breakdown and skips empty databases
  • Database.lua: GetContentSummary(); runs one-time migrations from Initialize
  • Migrations.lua (new): carries user deletions across content moved between modules
    (Dad Jokes -> Warcraft Jokes) and prunes stale deletions from the source
  • README + CHANGELOG updated; CODE_REVIEW.md marks resolved items and adds performance
    and code-cleanup sections (analysis only, not applied)
• Split Warcraft-themed jokes into their own database (0.6.0-alpha.1)
  • New module Modules/WarcraftJokes.lua: 84 WoW-specific jokes, own config tab,
    defaults to disabled, persisted per-module settings
  • Removed those 84 jokes from Dad Jokes (1007 -> 923); Dad Jokes dbVersion 2 -> 3
  • Added default prefix entry for the warcraftjokes module (GetContentPrefix
    otherwise returned an empty prefix for it)
  • Added to TOC load order
  • Start-up content count already iterates all registered modules, so the new
    database is included in the load message, /dadabase status and Settings stats
  • CODE_REVIEW.md catalogs issues and improvements found during review (not fixed)
  • Version bumped to 0.6.0-alpha.1 (alpha channel - this needs testing)
• Prep for 12.1.5 release
