Update disclaimer

• Yes, I have checked and my issue is not related to the game updating and plugins not working correctly.

What did you do?

Setting XL_NOAUTOUPDATE to true leads to a System.Exception: Frontier URL template is null, this is now required error.

Yeah, that's annoying... We moved a few static values necessary for the launcher to function into a config payload that is downloaded together with the update check, so that we can change it without having to make a release.

We could hardcode them when disabling updates, but that would mean that you'd likely be stuck with old values forever.

Is it possible to make launcher completely silent though? So it'll get all necessary data, token for login and stuff without any popups. That would be really awesome!
