Quick question on updating
So I know that when you install and patch, the vanilla installation puts up shortcuts; one for offline/LAN, and one for online. The online one normally runs through the SierraUp.exe. I'm running TimeHUD, which passes args along straight to Tribes2.exe, and so I don't run SierraUp at all.
Do we use SierraUp at all for pushing out updates or anything? Is there a plan to use it that way or have some other auto-update thing?
Or because the news tab is up in-game to alert of updates, is that the main method of updating?

The auto-update system is not currently implemented in the release, but when it is, it will be run through the ruby interpreter ingame.
If we ever get around to auto-updating, it will be handled internally.
