I love beta/alpha software. I thrive on it for some reason.
Obviously, the nightly builds are far from being nightly. Has the reason been officially addressed? I understand that nightly builds aren’t exactly easy to deploy because that pretty much forces the developer to work on it every single day, without a day off. Also, I am perfectly happy to go back to dev builds and not call them nightlies, I don’t want to sound like I am ungrateful and ranting “omg nightlies aren’t every night!”. If nightlies will never be truly “nightly” (or at least not for a while), can we call them something else like alpha builds? It just causes confusion.
Now, a question:
For those of us that love the most recent version possible, can there be an opt-in option (with disclaimer stating that alpha builds are susceptible to issues) allowing my copy of ST2 to check for nightly builds? I would much prefer my editor to yell at me saying “NEW NIGHTLY AVAILABLE!” instead of having to go to the website every day. Also, by having it be opt-in, this solves the issue of “the latest nightly broke my project!” because the user has to agree and know wtf a “nightly” actually means.
Did I even make any sense? I love/hate Fridays, my brain feels all jumbled these days…
