I'm putting this here because its not necessarily a request for a script. Rather, I'm looking for help on a way to do this, no matter what the method is.
I'm making a game that I'd like to have auto-update. Let me just jump into my explanation...
I want it so that whenever you start up the game's .exe, it checks what version you have. I think the best method to do this would be by making it so that whenever you launch the .exe, it runs a different program (an auto-update program I have on my computer) and you cannot play the game until it is updated. Another option could be for it to check what version you have somehow, and if you don't have the most reason version, it tells you to download the update or to run the auto-updater. The reason I need this is that I intend for my game to have different "events" every once in a while, and I don't want people to sit there and cheat to get items and such after the event ends. Then once they have these items, they could update, allowing them to keep old event rewards after the event is over. If they are forced to update to play, they cannot cheat like this, and as such, playing during the events actually has a purpose.
I could use any help you can provide. Thanks in advance.
