Version management

How versions of the game, the launcher, the injector and mods relate.

ThingVersioned by
GameThe Steam build; the mapping is tied to the SHA-256 of one executable.
LauncherSemantic version, published on the mods site. It updates itself.
InjectorIts own version, embedded in the launcher; older installed copies are replaced.
ModsVersions uploaded to the mods site; the launcher compares and offers updates.

After a game update, the mapping is moved to the new build by fingerprinting the machine code (addresses masked), then verified against the bytes. Anything that cannot be proven stays unresolved.
