v2.4.1 Software Release

[SkyTrak_Seth]

Hey Guys,

Nothing monumental here, just a quick maintenance release with some small bug fixes and back end changes. But it's live on PC and iOS if you wish to update.

Release Notes:

- Improved App Login Stability
- Improved Device Connections

I have noticed one cool undocumented change...framerate is now locked at 60fps.

I had hoped this would improve shot delay time, but it made no change there. However, my PC is much cooler, quieter and using alot less power now that it isnt rendering the app at 1000+ fps.

[SkyTrak_Seth]

Oh yeah...we did do that

SkyTrak_Seth / Seth, so every time one updates app one needs to re-sync all shots in history again? Thanks.

[SkyTrak_Seth]

Oh your iPad, I believe it wipes the local DB. On the PC, it keeps it on update.

[doublebogey]

Yes iPad. This makes it a little bit of a pain each time one updates app in iPad as it takes a long time to re-sync (re-build) entire local database =(

[SkyTrak_Seth]

I'm not sure that there is a way around it, but I will certainly look into it.

Thanks Seth/Skytrak for your continual development. It's nice not needing to complain all the time about stuff.

[BamaGambler]

Shardak, what is the name of the frame rate application you use?

Don't worry guys, I'll be sure to put on my evil mask and start purposefully holding stuff back again once I get tired of the silence

[SkyTrak_Seth]

I think you'll be very happy with the next release....

[bennyg211]

Well I think I'm very happy with your reply. Cheers.

Beware! Another Seth carrot and the stick situation!!!!

Well, if it's getting too quiet around here:

Re: iPad/iPhone, assuming your using core data, there's no reason this has to happen. You can even add a setting that will handle minor schema changes automatically. Developers are paranoid of database corruption so they'll avoid doing this, but delete & re-install is always a back up plan.

Also, even if you did have to download and load all shot data, it's taking way too long to do that. It takes 10-12 seconds to download ALL my shot data from skygolf, which is something like 5000 shots. This should load into the database in another 15 seconds or so.

Haven't done much iOS development lately, so thought I'd try this to keep my skills up. Using batch load, it was a lot faster than I thought (iPhone 5s):

Fetched data in: 11.21 seconds
Loaded data in: 0.91 seconds
Finished: 7201 swings
