What D'lanor is trying to say is that Uru already does this. It's just that Cyan didn't use it, as it does this upon link in to an age that needs to be updated. (If I'm correct in what D'lanor is pointing out. I'm not all to familiar with the server stuff) Reason they didn't use it is that to update the client requires downloading at the start up screen, while updating ages can be done in game, upon linking. So for each update in MOUL they just updated everything at the start up screen, resulting in long downloads on big episodes. With OSMO though, I'm under the impression that the other than the client updates, most user run servers will probably defer to the internal patcher for downloading ages. This way if you don't want a specific fan created age, you just don't link there. And if you do, you link there (more than likely through the Nexus)
