Wipe everything script fails due to foreign key constraints

[trichoplax]

Describe the bug
Running the script with rails runner gives an error, and the deletion of the database data fails:

$ rails r scripts/wipe_everything.rb

Mysql2::Error: Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails (qpixel_dev.user_abilities, CONSTRAINT fk_rails_de15a6ad96 FOREIGN KEY (ability_id) REFERENCES abilities (id)) (ActiveRecord::InvalidForeignKey)

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• No preparation required - simply run the script from the terminal as described.

Expected behavior
The database should be emptied and reseeded as if starting from a new installation.

A decision needs to be made to either fix this script (which may involve deleting the data per table in a specific order) or to delete this script if it is no longer required.

Does that PR fully address this? I.e. should we close this issue now, or is there something still to do?

[TimothyDLewis]

Fully addresses it; so yes, this can be closed now 🙂 (Sorry, used to issues auto-closing when an associated PR is merged and closed; didn't realize this was a manual process at the moment)

[cellio]

Usually it does auto-close; I don't know why it didn't here. Fixing that now.

Oh hmm... Chances are I didn't link it correctly; I'll double-check that next time 😅
