🔧 Client Auto-Updater Fix

Some of you reported that the client was closing itself once or twice during the update check on startup, forcing you to relaunch until it finally reached the login screen. That was an engine bug in the auto-updater.

What was happening

After downloading a new version, the client was restarting into the old binary, which then had to spawn the new one a second time. Two restarts in a row — and sometimes one of the spawn calls would drop on Windows, which is why a few of you had to relaunch manually.

The fix

The client now spawns the newest version directly after an update, so there is only one automatic restart instead of two. You will see a single quick close-and-reopen the next time the updater runs.

Heads up: because this fix is itself a client update, the first launch after this patch will still show the old double-restart behavior one last time. After that you are good.
