Upgrading Procedure

[TOAGame]

Hello everyone,

        I have read the support docs a few times over now, but just want to ask to make sure that I understand what I'm doing and its the right way. Lets say I fork the Intersect Engine (Master) and its on my PC, clean and brand new. I have heard its not recommended to use the (Development) branch so is it appropriate to use the pre-release build to get the already working features? I get confused when I look at all the different branches. Thanks and I apologize in advance if this is a silly question.

Master -> Generally most stable, oldest supported build.

 

Pre-Release -> The next build we will consider stable, more features, more bugs. I'd say most people are using prerelease and it should be fairly safe for games in development. (Probably wouldn't recommend for active games with larger player bases)

 

Development -> Full of all the new and fun stuff. Not guaranteed to work at all. Some of the things in there have been tested very little or not at all. Some things might be added that we know are broken to be fixed later. Dev should be avoided.

I appreciate it very much. Ill stick with master and upgrade only when it gets upgraded.
