Updating
This page is meant for guiding you through updating the Plugin to a new version when installed before.
Big update (v3.0.0)
Updating the plugin to v3.0.0 is not that difficult as long as you follow the instructions below which will prevent you from having any files remaining from an older version.
Currently you should see 2 folders and 1 file in the "Arcky's Region Map" folder.
Let's start by opening the "000_Settings_and_Setup" folder.
Let's copy the 001_RegionMap_LocationInfo file to our desktop (or any location on your pc) as a back up.
After doing that, we can now remove all the content inside the "Arcky's Region Map" folder and replace it with the v3.0.0 update content.
Copy these 6 folders and the meta file into the empty "Arcky's Region Map" plugin folder of your project.
The final step is to copy and replace the 001_RegionMap_LocationInfo.rb file from your back-up location on your pc into the 000_Settings_and_Setup folder.
That's all for updating to v3.0.0 of this plugin. If you would have encountered any issues or you're not sure about something, feel free to contact me through discord.
Regular Update
Updating this plugin is very easy but there are a few things you need to keep in mind before doing this blindly.
When updating this plugin, always make a back up of these 2 files.
If you're a bit more familiar with this Plugin already, you might understand better why these 2 files are so important and better to not loose them.
These files basically contain all your modifications you've made for the plugin to use.
When updating the plugin and you would just replace the whole plugin folder, all your settings and locationInfo would be lost and replaced by the default ones that comes with the plugin.
Also always make a back up of your RegionMap (v20.1) or Town Map (v21.1) folder. This is important when a new update comes with modified or new Graphics to add. You can also copy the new ones over manually to make sure nothing unwanted is replaced.
