Another short update, but one with positive news: On Wednesday, I finally wrapped up the biggest part of the Spring Migration project, namely the rewrite of the data access layer to adapt it to a new version of our ORM library. If that doesn’t mean anything to you…no worries. The key thing to know is that it literally touches every single part of the game, so it’s been a long and tedious affair to get this finished.
That said, there remains more to be done. Other libraries require adjustments as well, albeit not as drastic as the ORM one. And of course I should do at least one or two passes of rudimentary testing to make sure things still work. Although to be perfectly honest…this one’s going to get “tested in production” for the most part, because there’s just no way I can properly test all the things I touched (see above…everything 
).
Fingers crossed that this project is going to be behind me in the next issue of the devlog
