wadamesh beta_12 — GPS hotfix
A focused hotfix for the GPS slowdown several of you reported. Everything else from beta_11 is unchanged — this release is GPS-only.
🛰️ GPS fix
On the T-Deck, getting a position fix had gone slow — minutes instead of about a minute — and for some it wouldn't acquire at all. The GPS streams its data over a small serial buffer, and on the busy touch UI a single heavy screen redraw could stall long enough to overflow that buffer and drop the satellite data mid-stream, forcing the receiver to start the fix over. The buffer is now 16× larger, so redraws no longer cost you the fix. Confirmed on-device — acquisition is back to normal.
💬 A note from Kaj
More and more people are picking up wadamesh lately — which is genuinely awesome — and it's surfacing feature requests and bug reports fast, in big numbers. I can't get back to every post in every channel, but I'm on it: I'm prioritising the fixes and quality-of-life improvements, and I'll be working through them later today. Thanks for all the reports and for the patience! 🙏
