MagiCorp Updater
Made By:JamesW/MagiCorp
#What this program does: This program handles updating in a modular way
You specify the web server holding the updates, versions and checksums
The application should do the rest
#Instructions:
To add this to your program you need to do a few things.
First: create a version.mup file holding the number of the latest version of your program (we'll compare this to your running version)
Second: Place a zip file with the same name as version. ex: version 1136 of a program's zip would be 1136.zip
Third: Generate a sha256 checksum of the zip and place it inside a .sha256 file
Finally: Place all of these inside your ://WebServer/Updater/ProgramName/
