Dear developers.
We are preparing the migration of BGA game servers to PHP 8. All games deployed to production must eventually be compatible with PHP 8 so we are currently analyzing them and patching them to solve common issues. We will individually contact you if your game cannot be simply patched and we will coordinate the upgrade with you.
The upgrade to PHP 8 will be done in two steps. We will first upgrade the Studio game server. At that point you will be able to check if your game works well with PHP 8 and fix any potential issue.
Following that, we will upgrade all the production game servers. Until this is done and we officially announce that boardgamearena is running on PHP 8, no specific PHP 8 feature is allowed.
We will post the exact date on this very channel. The upgrade of the Studio Game server will, most likely, be done during the January with upgrade of the production following shortly.
