Auto-Update?

Post by xzinum »

It seems like every time I fire up the game, I have to log in the forums, look for a sticky'ed post with a download link to update the game. Please note this is in no way a slight about the frequency at which the game is updated.

Is it possible to add some sort of mechanism to auto-update prior to starting the game? There's already a "launcher" and a "Browser" that open before running the game, can it not be used?

Alternatively, the page the browser loads could have version info rather than the generic marketing material from http://capitalismlab.com/launcher/

If it's in the next update, we can imagine an option : "would you like auto update ?"
