next Update will break clanchest.db #25

Open SICGames opened 2 weeks ago

Just giving everyone a heads-up that the next update will break the clanchest.db. This is regarding to the Date issue.

There isn't a way to convert Germany to America date string format or vise-versa. So American date string would be: 12/01/2024 while Germany would be 01.12.2024 Inside the clan chest database it is saved as a string and not a DateTime object. The update coming soon, will have DateTime saved as an DateTime object and no longer a forced string.

So if you're from Germany, each time you do chest count, it will be saved as your current cultural date format.

By deleting the database, we are also deleting all the record that we have saved so far..? luckily I did a backup

Yes. Because when counting chests, it no longer uses a forced date string. Before it was forced to write:month-day-year. Interesting how different cultures have their time and date.

I had to delete the db as well.. No worries really if we can get a better and better system..

Well, basically US in a nut shell.. want to use very strange systems... the use of your date string, which basically no other countries but that also applies to Metric system( for the win !!) image
