Ingnomia

0.6.0
Over the last week I worked on replacing all the JSON config files with a sqlite database. If you have any programming knowledge you probably can imagine what that means, for the rest that's a very big change as this ties into almost every part of the game. When I started I just renamed the .h file of the old wrapper and it reported 78 occurrences of file not found. After a week of hard work I have the game working as before again minus the new bugs.

A former boss of mine used to say, a change without improvement is making things worse. So far we have multiple new bugs we haven't found yet, it runs slower that the old stuff and I will have to do a new implementation of the modding support. So what are the improvements and advantages?

- stricter and formal data definition will make it harder to invalid values in the future
- can use SQL goodness for data lookup
- adding stuff won't break save games anymore

There's probably more I can't think of right now but having the data in a DB now is the cleaner solution and the right step for future maintainability. Over the next weeks I will monitor which tables and values are queried most often and add some caching to them.


So if you have a high frustration threshold please test it out and report any bugs and misbehavior.
