Duplicate addons freezes load screen

#1 Post by squarelycircle »

So, I downloaded a bunch of addons on my laptop, and then couldn't remember which I had actually downloaded on my main computer, so I just went and re-downloaded them all via the in game interface. The addons directory had duplicate files that contained an addition at the end of the filename, like "_10". When starting a new game, the loading screen got to 100%, and then the bar started flashing, and it never seemed to finish, so I alt-F4'd and deleted the extra files. Now, starting a new game loaded quickly.

There's the bug. However, it made me think of another suggestion - auto-updating add-ons, or at least notifying of new versions. If this is present already, I just haven't noticed it.

Thanks.
