Problems after deploying to Alpha

After deploying my Soothsayers game to private Alpha, I'm encountering both JS and PHP related issues that are not occuring in the Studio dev environment.

What recommendations do you have for troubleshooting once a game is in Alpha?

I have already:
1. Tested minified JS and CSS in the dev env.
2. Run the Check Your Project set of tests and corrected any issues.
3. Reviewed the list of Errors in Production.

It was running perfectly in the Studio dev env, and I'm struggling to figure out what happened once it was deployed to prod.

JS is easier because you can debug it in your browser development console. PHP problems compared to Studio shouldn't happen, so that's odd.

As an easy sanity check, have you tried clicking the Redeploy button, just in case something glitched out in the last deploy?

Thanks, I think I've tracked down the error. I had a couple external CSV files that were storing card data. It was working fine in Studio dev env, but seems to be causing problems in prod. I'm refactoring the code to eliminate the external CSV files, and I expect that'll fix the problem.
