CLIENT

Configuration Management

• Server Config Import — Import an existing serverconfig.xml directly into RAT 5, review supported settings, and apply the pending changes when ready.
• Protected Unsaved Changes — Configuration edits are preserved during refreshes, and RAT 5 now warns before navigation or closing would discard them. A sticky action bar, change counter, and discard option make drafts easier to manage.
• Safer Live Updates — Configuration changes made elsewhere can be merged without overwriting your in-progress edits. RAT 5 clearly offers a choice between reloading the server version and keeping your draft.
• Remembered Credentials — Saved login credentials are now stored securely per connection profile and remain available more reliably between sessions.

Operator Administration

• Redesigned Operators and Roles — Operator accounts and role permissions now have dedicated, easier-to-navigate workspaces for creating accounts, assigning roles, managing permissions, resetting passwords, and reviewing account status.

RATScript Tools

• Expanded Script Reference — Function details now show parameters, required and optional values, limits, allowed values, return data, and template placeholders.
• Improved Token Reference — Tokens are organized into clearer categories, including server configuration and Discord data, with richer descriptions and autocomplete support.
• Event reference categories are now sorted alphabetically, and missing details from older server catalog responses are handled more reliably.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed the Dashboard incorrectly showing a stopped or crashed game server as still connecting.
• Fixed Reset WebTokens remaining stuck in a loading state when a response was delayed or lost.
• Fixed event reference drafts failing to resolve some catalog entries correctly.

Player Groups
Groups Page: The Groups page has been redesigned with a tabbed layout. Group Editor, Create Group, and Player Assignments are now each on their own tab for a cleaner experience.

Player Assignments: The player assignment tab now shows a scrollable, filterable player list on the left and the group selector with apply controls on the right. Type to filter players by name instead of scrolling through a dropdown.
- Player names in the assignment dropdown no longer show the internal player GUID.
- Group editor now shows a Default badge inline on the tab when the selected group is the server default.
- Simplified teleport override fields — leaving a field blank now clearly inherits from the default group.

Script Editor
- Teleport functions (`tp_add`, `tp_remove`, `tp_go`, `tp_to`, `tp_to_ground`, `tp_to_player`, `tp_offset`, `tp_dc`, `tp_mdc`, `tp_list`) are now grouped under a dedicated **Teleports** category in the function reference panel.
- The function category dropdown is now sorted alphabetically. **All** remains pinned at the top.

Fixes for some RAT script issues, and a couple for the new scheduler.

Task Scheduler UI: A new Scheduler page provides a full editor for creating and managing scheduled tasks, with a calendar view that highlights which days of the week a task is active. Save, enable/disable, run immediately, and delete tasks directly from the editor header.

Game Server Script Reference: The script reference panel now includes a `game_server` category covering all seven `gs_*` functions. Three built-in starter templates are included: an admin restart countdown, a countdown cancellation handler, and a crash-detection auto-restart script.

Text Match Starter Templates: Two new built-in event templates are available for the `text.match` event type: a pattern logger that writes a log entry when a watched phrase appears, and a Discord alert that sends an embed when a console line matches.

UI & Visuals

The event type dropdown in the Events editor now scrolls correctly when the catalog is large, stays within the application window, and matches the visual style of all other form fields in the editor.

Additions

• Managed startup config option — Added a new server setting that lets you control whether RAT rewrites the game server config file right before startup.

Changes

• The Config and Discord settings flows were refined to better preserve and normalize saved values.
• Discord channel mappings now save more cleanly by trimming fields and ignoring untouched blank entries.

Fixes

• Fixed the Config page failing to load correctly in some desktop-bridge cases.
• Stabilized Config page bootstrap loading so the page comes up more reliably.
• Improved settings flow handling for Config and Discord pages so saves behave more consistently.

Config and install menu items were not displaying in some conditions.
