0.3.1 Hotfix

v0.3.1

Halley v0.3.1 is a focused hotfix for landmark/window overlap transfer and fullscreen game reveal regressions in v0.3.0.

Halley v0.3.1 is a small emergency release for two regressions found after the third orbit release.

This update keeps the v0.3.0 presentation and overlap model intact while restoring the missing handoff paths that made landmark collisions and fullscreen game launches unreliable.

Included

In This Release

Landmark transfer restored

Dragged windows once again transfer force through landmarks into passive expanded windows, preventing landmarks from sliding underneath neighboring windows after release.

Release overlap cleanup

Any remaining landmark/window overlap is resolved after a drag ends while expanded windows can still overlap each other directly.

Game reveal fixed

Fullscreen and presentation-state windows now finish their initial commit reveal path before later commits use the presentation-only fast path, fixing games that launched with audio but no image.

Notes

Still Growing

  • This release is recommended for all v0.3.0 users.
  • No config changes are required.
  • The release keeps expanded-window overlap behavior from v0.3.0 while restoring non-overlap guarantees for landmark/window contacts.

Thanks

To The Early Orbit

Thanks to the users who reproduced the landmark collision and fullscreen game launch regressions quickly after v0.3.0.

The focused reports made it possible to isolate both fixes without rolling back the rest of the release.

0.3.1 steadies the third orbit.
