Custom UI for the Stat Creator has some issues

General Issues and Bug Reporting

Summary

The widget we apply to the stat device has two issues:

  1. Slides from left to right even tho we have our own custom widget without animations.
  2. The most annoying one, the widget is not centered.

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

UI/Tools

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Add the Stat Creator to your island.
  2. Make a custom user widget for it.
  3. Add a canvas, then an image and set it’s anchor to the middle, reset the position X/Y to 0, and set the Alignment to 0.5 x 0.5
  4. Start the session, and you’ll notice that once the game starts, the widget slides from left to right and the image isn’t centered.

Expected Result

A custom widget shouldn’t have any intro/outro animation unless we set it ourselves.
The UI/Canvas should be centered.

Observed Result

The widget has a slide intro.
The widget is not centered.

Platform(s)

I’ve only tried PC and Android but it’s fair to assume it affects all platforms

The tracker device also has the same issue.

Alignment not being correct.
Slide in intro + fade out outro even tho we haven’t set it ourselves, and no option to remove it either.

Perhaps it would be useful to give us these options for both the Tracker + Stat Creator.
These options are found in the HUD message device.

Also, both devices (Tracker, Stat Creator) suffer from the same Join-in-Progress issue where UI doesn’t show up for players that join after the game has started. Really hoping they get fixed soon.

Hey @Flak ! Sorry for the ping—I just wanted to clarify something. Is the team only working on fixing the Stat Creator UI, or are they also addressing the UI issues with the Tracker and Timer that I mentioned above?

I’m asking to know whether I should make a separate post about the other devices having the same problems. Thanks for your time!

It should definitely be different posts. Tickets are created from the original post. Thanks for asking!
