REQ: Notify on new version released.
Closed this issue · 0 comments
The client already uses cURL for other things and it would be trivial to perform a call towards GitHub or any other suitable place and check if a new version has been released and somehow present this information to the user.
Maybe print in the console, maybe some icon somewhere in the UI. Perhaps an UI element that's default visible if outdated, hud_version_show 0|1.
By keeping the "there is a new version" state during execution, and an additional message could be printed in cases like #826 that would mention that a new version is available, and the user could try that out before filing a bug.
should print version on load, and a colored text to update, same could also show when /version, and also /f_version
