Steps to Reproduce:

Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. Please be as detailed as possible; the more details, the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

  1. Update any mod running on a private server

I dont know if this has been raised and I dont think its limited to any particular server using mods. If I am wrong Id gladly apply any or advise any fixes to the servers I play on.

At the moment whenever a mod updates on steam. The client doesnt pick it up, unless relog of steam occurs. This might be something out of your control, but I thought Id post just in case its not been brought to your attention before.

The second stage to this issue which may or may not be related or a too high expectation is that mod updates (after a relog) wont apply while the client is in use, they stick on pending.

Thanks for your time.

Issue between you and Steam. Not a Funcom thing.

That’s how pretty much every Steam game with a workshop works. Too high expectations.

Been making mods for Conan for 3 years. It’s not a Funcom thing.

Thanks, had a lot of people complain about the hassle of having to logging in and out to get the client to recognise it needs an update. Just thought Id see if it was something that funcom was aware of.

Not all steam games need this to happen, and to be honest I have only noticed this issue with modded Conan servers since the changes to the game product to be available on multiple platforms leading up to the new launcher, around the time of integration with EGS etc.

If its not worth investigating from the developers end, close the bug report. Wasnt trying to upset anyone or any modders.
