Lotta people using the launcher update feature and breaking their game

Your solution

Can we make this a command?

"To update the game, don't use the launcher's update function. Instead, make a new instance of the new version and copy paste your saves, xaero, options.txt, emi.json, and emi.css in config folder"

Additional information

No response

I would also like to include this with the message sent in #modern/vintage-releases channel

[Xikaro]

Are there any cases of what exactly breaks?

[Mqrius]

Random stuff, mod mismatches during loading, config settings, random ingame stuff not working, really hard to say but that's why it's the first question we ask when someone has a weird bug

[Xikaro]

As long as I used the update, nothing broke....
It's just that using this approach will raise even more questions and nuances, in addition to moving the map and waypoints, as well as your settings

I don't mind, I just would like to understand such cases.

[Pyritie]

not really, this will just automate a question we basically copy and paste to people anyway

Wait, so some Create washing recipes being borked for me could be because of this? I was gonna open an issue about it.
