Proper order of auto-updates
Posted: Sat Nov 01, 2014 6:54 pm
There's one moment that's bugging me for quite a long time.
The game fully loads its assets (mods, graphics, etc) before checking for updates and letting you download the new version. Which is quite awkward especially when something severe about mods changes (like when it was back with 0.10): if you downloaded mods for the new version in advance, they'll refuse to load and you won't be able to get to updates until you temporary remove them.
In my mind, it would be better if the updates check were performed before the assets-loading step.
