Faster map listing and auto update mods
v2023.1.6 bring some big improvement to handling of mods in general. Not a lot of eye-candy, but a lot of stuff under the hood that makes handling of mods much better.
[h2]Much faster map listing[/h2]
I have improved the way custom maps are listed in the main menu so much that it's not even comparable to the old version. The more map mods you have installed the bigger the difference will be.
So what took like 5 min. to list before, now takes like 5-10 sec. So it's really a game changer!
[h2]Auto update of mods[/h2]
You would think that mods you subscribed to was automatically updated, right? Well, so did I, but it turned out that wasn't the case due to various technical reasons.
However, as a "side effects" of the optimized map listing, we now also have much more reliable mod updates.
This is also a big clean and a game changer, as a lot of help requests on the Discord, often comes down players not having the latest version of a mod - and I can't blame them - as the game should update the mods automatically. It does now and it is a really nice feature.
As shown in the gif above, once you click the "Start" button in the MainMenu, the game quickly checks updates for all subscribed mods that are enabled.
That's all for now - hope you will have fun.
