Auto-Update

AssetPlus can automatically check for updates and install them with one click.

How It Works

  1. On startup, AssetPlus checks GitHub for the latest release
  2. If a newer version is available, a dialog appears
  3. You can install immediately or dismiss for later

Update Dialog

When an update is available, you'll see:

  • Current version vs. new version
  • Release notes (what's new)
  • Install Now - Downloads and installs the update
  • Later - Closes the dialog (will check again next startup)
  • Disable Auto-Update - Stops checking at startup

Installing Updates

When you click Install Now:

  1. The new version is downloaded from GitHub
  2. Files are extracted to a temporary location
  3. The plugin is disabled
  4. Old files are replaced with new ones
  5. The plugin is re-enabled
  6. Godot editor restarts automatically

Editor Restart

The editor will restart after installing an update. Make sure to save your work before updating.

Manual Update Check

You can manually check for updates:

  1. Open AssetPlus Settings
  2. Click Check for Updates
  3. If an update is available, the same dialog appears

Disabling Auto-Update

To stop automatic update checks:

Option 1: From the update dialog - Click Disable Auto-Update - Confirm in the popup

Option 2: From Settings - Open Settings - Uncheck Check for updates at startup - Click Save

Re-enabling Auto-Update

  1. Open Settings
  2. Check Check for updates at startup
  3. Click Save

Update Source

Updates are fetched from: github.com/moongdevstudio/AssetPlus/releases

You can always download updates manually from there if auto-update fails.
