| Summary | 0012697: Mod compatibility labeling non functional | ||||
| Description | The mod version compatibility check has been broken since the Steam release. Mods that are marked as incompatible with previous versions of the mod are still prompting to update saved worlds, the game doesn't even give a warning that the mod is marked as incompatible with previous versions. I've been marking in my changelogs whether the mod is compatible with existing worlds or not, but neither the previous compatible version nor changelog show in the update prompt. if i have a version 1.1.0, even if the compatibility of 1.1.1 is ONLY 1.1.1, it still pushes to update 1.1.0 worlds, leading to them breaking or not actually changing anything upon pressing update. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Install 2 versions of a mod, and have the incoming latest install be labeled as only compatible with itself (which should turn off the prompt for asking to update when loading a world for embark). | ||||
| Additional Information | The world always pushes to update mods not giving an avenue for version control, always pushing for the latest version of the mod with no way for the author to control the compatibility version. | ||||
