1.22 Launcher and PBO updates
Feedback, NormalPublic

Description

It's nice that the launcher now tells you before you get in a Q if your files are not updated..

But can we get it to actually update before/when clicking the "Setup DLC and Mods" button
or at least indicate that there is a newer version of the mod and the dropdowns for each mod lets you choose to update within the setup browser.
It already has the options to find(search workshop) missing mods, should let you repair/update too.

is a fix for this planned?

Having the mods update before/after pressing join, just seems like it should be how the launcher should function.

Issue: Server updates mod since you last played.

Launch the launcher, press join on server
Launcher joins server, PBO Error is presented for outdated PBO.

proceed to mod tab and repair mods...

We're glad this displays before you sit through 45mins in Queue... but why doesn't this just update the pbo.....

As of today this is still an annoyance.

Will we ever see an update to the launcher where it checks if we have the latest mod, and if not update it, before attempting to join the Q?

Expected results.

  • Start Launcher from Steam
  • Launcher checks subscribed mods
  • Subscribed mods list queries current versions from workshop
  • Launcher updates any out of date mods
  • User presses Join on server they've played before
  • Launcher verifies mods are still the latest for required mods if version check is performed if xx time has passed since last check.
  • Installs mods
  • Joins server.
