The importance of consistent style
I can now write pages on the importance of consistent style when working with a big team and how much time it'll save you...
Early on in the jam, we made a simple mistake that would end up being costly, and were inconsistent in our folder naming scheme. It got changed around on various peoples system across multiple operating systems, and no change ever fully stuck.
Fast forward to today and it turns out our big crash was caused by SOME systems being unable to find a packed resource because the folder names weren't being treated properly. /Tilesets/MyTileset.tres vs /tilesets/MyTileset.tres. Our filesystems and github repository could never agree on what we were doing with that. This bug cost us HOURS during the jam and came back to bite us again in embarrassing crashes for some user. Hopefully we can lay that one down to rest once and for all, though I wish I knew why it worked for so many, and burned for others. We thankfully got in contact with someone for whom the game crashed nearly every time. With his help we were finally able to get the information we needed. Thanks Doug!
The windows 11 non-start bug... this capital letter induced crash bug... can't wait to see what other horrible bug is going to keep me up at night. So give Sominpathy a play, and see if you can't break it again!
