What's new in Videochat Extension?

• Implemented a hint system that displays informative messages when opening a video chat.
• Minor fixes and performance improvements.

Hint system (Chatruletka, Ome.tv, Minichat, Chatrulez).

• The idea of occasionally showing a reminder of our Discord server existence instead of the usual disclaimer was not excellent because you most likely do not want to be distracted by these rare reminders during the session, even if you press STOP. Therefore, this idea evolved into a full-fledged hint system.
• Now, instead of the usual disclaimer, each time you open a video chat, a message like 'Did you know?' is displayed.
• Hints contain brief information that should be useful for you: where to complain if something broke down, reminders of some valuable features (and the ability to test them right away), etc.
• The hint appears at the first API check, which occurs when you open a video chat.
• You can turn off the display of hints in the control panel's settings.
• There are currently 19 hints. The most useful of them will appear more often.

Control panel (COMC).

• Fixed an issue with incorrect content height in different control panel tabs.
• Fixed an issue with incorrect margin-top of geolocation data (6px -> 3px).

Coomeet Free.

• Reduced size of extension controls.
• Added country output to the 'bot detected' button.

Optimization

• Faceapi is now only loaded if needed, improving the extension's launch speed on ancient computers.
• Optimized the registration speed of dynamic scripts when granting permissions / reloading the extension.
• Slightly reduced the size of the extension.
• Fixed checking for missing permissions on sites like ABC.domain.com.
• Added caching of popup content and height. The popup loads just as slowly (0.1s-0.3s) but is less noticeable.
• Improved error collection functionality. That will allow us to identify and fix errors faster than before.
• Changed the way the extension compiles, which should significantly speed up the store approval process for future updates.
