Title: Version Check
Post by: headdie on July 08, 2012, 12:18:53 pm
Reading Blue planet age of aquarius worked fine until now.. (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=81322.0;topicseen) I was thinking it would be useful for modders to be able to enter a line into Game_settings.tbl where they can list a recommended minimum version of FSO for the mod which the game then reads against the build number and if all is ok then proceeds like normal and if not brings up a warning that the version of FSO might not be up to running the mod, the player can then choose to take action on the message or ignore it and accept the consequences.

What about a popup that just reads "RTFM". Cause that's what it comes down to.

There's already a version-specific commenting system, which can be used to accomplish the same thing.

Closing this, because the issue should be handled in the original thread.
