announcement - cortex-command-community/Cortex-Command-Community-Project GitHub Wiki

Hey! We're changing the way we version the game, starting from this release.

Full details here: --> https://github.com/cortex-command-community/Cortex-Command-Community-Project-Source/wiki/New-Versioning-Scheme

Instead of this release being labelled

Pre6

we'll use the version number

v6.0.0

All future game versions will follow this format as well.

This is so we can start properly using Semantic Versioning for mod support. You can read more about that here: https://semver.org/

The new version number is of the form X.Y.z, and is made up of 3 parts: the major, minor and patch versions. This change lets us differentiate between 3 types of releases:

• releases that break mods [major version: X]
• releases that add new features or content and don't break mods [minor version: Y]
• and releases that fix bugs without adding anything new [patch version: z]

We're doing this to make it easier to publish new versions of the game without breaking mods, and so we can release those versions more easily so you can play them faster!

Instead of big yearly PreX releases, we'll (hopefully) get them to you sooner.
