I'm also having some issue now when I changed a type from using a class

Unhandled exception:
orange.serialization.SerializationException.SerializationException The
object of the static type "const(ItemInterface)" have a different
runtime type (Item) and therefore needs to either register its type or
register a serializer for its type "Item". at
..\..\..\orange\serialization\SerializationException.d(25)
Item inherits from ItemInterface.
I was storing a list of Items and changed it to store ItemInterface
Item[] -> ItemInterface[]
and this is when the error happened.
Of course, I'd expect the interface not being serializable(although,
maybe @properties should be?) it would be nice if it would store the
actual type in it's place(an Item). Else, this prevents me from using
interfaces.
D doesn't support any runtime reflection (or very little). All
reflection is done at compile time, i.e. getting all the fields. If the
static type and the dynamic type differs Orange cannot properly
serialize the dynamic type. For that to work you need to register all
dynamic types that are expected to be serialized through a base class or
interface. See this example [1].
