From Godot 3 to Godot 4: Top 10 Challenges of Upgrading the 2D Orbits Projects
10A quick look at the 10 major problems I ran into when upgrading the approximately 2000 lines of code in the 3 different 2D Orbits hobby projects on the channel.
The upgrade was from Godot 3.4 to version 4.2.
Useful Godot Documentation:

The upgrade was split into phases to make the process more manageable. I completed each phase for all three projects before moving to the next phase. For reference, the upgrade phases were:
1) The Initial Backup,
2) The Automated Project Upgrade,
3) A First Glance Comparison,
4) The Initial Run,
5) and Main Feature Testing and Final Adjustments.
This video focuses on the last 2 phases where I had to make the fixes and changes.
These 3 projects will be available on our GitHub repository. Reach out if you are interested in accessing the code and projects.
