Updating a mod in vault / uploading new version

Postby Dudekahedron » 30 Nov 2016, 18:12

Hi FAF,
I'm trying to update my mod "The Dairy Farm" in the vault, and I get an error telling me that "TheDairyFarmV0002" already exists...
I know the first version I uploaded was V1, so why is it saying V0002?
Is there no way to just update the existing file?
Thanks!

you need to change the UID and the mod_version flag for each new version

Also: when the upload fails (same UID for example), the file that is created wont be deleted (most probably), so skip V2 (in your case) and try V3 ;)

For adaptivity, customizability and less clutter in the vault.

I think I just got whiplash, damn you are on point!

I did exactly the mistake you made with your edit haha, didn't change the UID, but did change the version #... V3 UPLOADED!
Thanks!!
