Surf Changelog 06/07/2024

+ Added self saving when selecting a public hud, to avoid rejoining the server with an empty hud if you forgot to click on the "save hud" button.
• Fixed an issue with the huds showing "[N/A]" as a WR
• Fixed an issue with Stage Personal and Stage WR records not updating when restarting your run, which updated only when you exited the start zone
• Fixed scoreboard names exceeding the predifined space when long enough. Will now be truncated with "..." appended to them
• Fixed scoreboard and profile names not applying custom vip name when set
• Fixed copying name on scoreboard not copying the custom vip name when set
• Fixed and adjusted several UI elements that were overlapping or were not correctly placed with default hud when spectating or not
• Fixed a major exploit that allowed players to get times under a second
Since this has been going on for months by several players who failed to report this but abused it anyway:

• Every player that exploited their time in any amount of maps or styles has been wiped.
  This includes any bot runs they might had saved

• Increased chances of triggering a zarp surf easter egg upon starting a run timer
• Several typo fixes and code optimizations to decrease redundancy, repetitiveness and errors
