May 2019

Removed the Round entity entirely and denormalised PlayerId onto Dart in order to aid performance. As part of this work, added the ability to generate large amounts of test data via the simulation process (dev mode only).

Also introduced "practice mode", as the generated games were single player and basically worked already. Also fixed a bad bug introduced last version caused by a rushed change to the DartsScorers.

In-game change log:

--------- v3.2.2 ---------

+ Ability to play single games with only 1 player (for practice)
= Performance improvement: Remove Round to speed up loading player stats (and other bits of SQL)
= Fixed a bug with resetting a round in Golf (introduced in v3.2.1)
= Fixed a bug which made it possible to select the same player multiple times in reporting setup
= 72.5% Kotlin
= 33.5% test coverage (4620 / 13,765 lines covered by 592 tests)

April 2019

Fixed a couple of bugs caused by the GUID change, did a load of converting to Kotlin and increasing test coverage mainly around:

In-game change log:

--------- v3.2.1 ---------

+ Granular achievement leaderboards to show who's winning on each achievement

= Performance improvement: New index on Round table
= 65.7% Kotlin
= 27.3% test coverage (3816 / 13,976 lines covered by 390 tests)
