Description

I am aware REPENTOGON has an automatic update check feature, but I once had to launch the game three times for it to actually fetch that update. An option in the in-game menu somewhere, perhaps down the bottom of the options menu or pinned on top/above the mods list, to make REPENTOGON poll for updates then close to apply them would be very useful for reliability and ease of updating.

Research direction

Start by locating REPENTOGON's existing automatic update check and the in-game options or mods-list menu. Determine how an update is fetched and applied, then define the menu action's behavior, including polling for updates and closing the game when necessary. Done means the option reliably triggers the check and supports applying an available update.
