v0.90.0 — Curated walks, curated courses, League season tables, and fixes

  • GeoRace League: a settled season's final tables now stay on league home for good.
  • Community GeoRace courses: an optional cover photo; an author-defined preset menu with aliases on the start page; admin-curated courses get a featured section on the hub and GeoRace home with a course-locked start link.
  • Auto-walk range extended from 1 km to 3 km.
  • Japanorama: a public landing page at worldboard.games/japanorama and play.japanorama.online
  • Expanded transit coverage: first ferry coverage in Japan (22 operators, 86 ports); corrected stop order on 29 OSM-generated regional feeds.
  • Hide & Seek: after the game-over reveal, View Map shows where the hider was.
  • GeoRace clues: the connected-city clue now uses rail connections, and a clue set with nothing to reveal no longer consumes a reveal.
  • Photo challenges: validation is bounded so the submit button no longer hangs past the deadline.
  • Auto speed-up is now a per-game preference, starting off in every game.
  • Replay viewer camera frames one zoom level out so players stay in frame.
  • Preset tier names and order are consistent everywhere.
  • Emails now arrive from "Worldboard" rather than "info".
  • New Content Creator program page. If you make videos, streams or podcasts about Worldboard, there is now a page explaining what we offer creators — free membership, direct support, a say in what gets built, and channel promotion in the in-game transit window. Linked from the site footer.
