Hey guys,

Unbelievable how one plugin can cause so much trouble – VisualStudioTools! I went as far as creating a temporary Windows install with all the tools, set it up on two different machines, restored a checkpoint from Perforce, and the problem still refused to go away. Only after I started deleting files from the project did the guilty plugin reveal itself. The funny part? VisualStudioTools is still needed for development since it helps see which blueprints are using my C++ code… so I guess it’s a necessary evil.

Anyway, back to work! I’m diving into learning how to write Automation Tests in C++. From my previous experience, I know it’s going to open a whole bucket of worms once I start writing real tests. But hey, someone’s gotta clean up this mess – otherwise, the project is just gonna get buggier than it already is. Better to get on top of it early.

Wish me luck!Alexandraus
