Super-early spooooky autumn status update
🕑 Added 2024-09-08 19:00:25 +0000 UTCIt has been over half a year since I last posted the last status update concerning both my personal struggles in life and the status of FA in general. This was largely due to the fact of me being extremely busy at my new job along with patching up all kinds of previous issues, problems, financial debts and any such misfortunes that I carried over from the last decade of my life.
All of this effort spent on patching up my life sadly also affected FA's development: I managed to find some time for patching/adding features of the old FA version, but sadly I was not able to get much work done on the new rewrite - As a "funny" side-note, this was not only caused by a lack of time, but also my computer slowly being unable to keep up with the development software which sometimes took up to 5 minutes to launch (and 30 to update after changes) before the project even loaded for me... which basically made any attempt at development rather hellish.
However, that time is over now! Roughly two weeks ago, I finished patching up all of those past-problems mentioned earlier, managed to get my previous health issues under control to the point where they became more of a very occasional nuisance than a full-blown health hazard and I also finally saved enough cash to grab a brand new, powerful and up-to speed PC that will allow me to finally get back developing of FA or anything else I would want/need to (along with anything else such a machine allows for... wink games wink).
In a nutshell, this means that starting today (+- 1-2 weeks... might wanna try some of those new games first >:D ), I am finally properly returning to the new version of FA development as I finally managed to turn my life around and fix all I needed to get to such a point!
To close off, I would like to thank EVERYONE from the bottom of my heart who supported me in any way, shape or form over the last couple years (both financially or in any other way) - I am not sure if I could have made it without you people... and even if I could have, it would have had been far, far, faaaar worse and more painful than it was thanks to you all.
So once more, thank you and see you soon - Hopefully with more concrete updates & news next time!

Glad to hear things are on good trajectories! Glad you've been taking care of yourself. Development is a marathon not a sprint.
