This release brings many bugfixes, internal improvements to the code base and some new, or re-enabled features. It also serves as a stop-gap between licenses used (GPL-2 to AGPL-3), and a final release which "supports" PHP 5.

Important notes

  • This is the last version with GPL-2 license. Further modifications to the codebase will be licensed using AGPL-3.0 and newer license. See #147
  • This is the last version with PHP 5 support. In the next release, PHP 5 support status will be changed from deprecated to removed (as in, not listed at all). PHP 5 is dead at this point (not supported at all), and the latest supported version, 7.2, is also not supported. At the moment of this release, the oldest supported PHP version is 7.4, and adding support for at least that version should be one of the biggest action items for the next release.

Breaking changes

  • English is now the default translation (you can still configure your server to use "Polish" as the default lang)
  • Translation related changes:
    • Since there was a huge language files cleanup during the translation process, some translation variables have been either removed or renamed.
    • Some of the translation files have been split into separate entities to better separate concerns:
      • worldElements.detailed.lang
      • rules.definitions.default.lang
      • jumpgate.lang
    • Task translations no longer require to define reward strings - they are automatically generated based on the tasks' definitions (however, when needed, translation string generators can be used to better localise the values).
    • Task translations no longer define the presented image - these are now defineable in includes/vars_tasks.php
  • Officers purchase definitions are now defined in includes/vars_officers.php
  • The separate config files (config.localhost.php, config.testserver.php) and their corresponding constants are no longer supported

Migration (from v1.0.0 to v1.1.0)

  • Is running dependency update required:
    YES
  • Is running migration utility required:
    YES
  • Are there any major breaking changes requiring manual actions:
    YES
    • Migration 20200425_234106 notifies admins about required manual action (introduced by #115)

Warning: remember - if you did customize your in-game configuration files (such as ships' parameters) or translations, you'll have to re-apply all your changes manually!
