Is this update for Steam only ? IF only for Steam, will this update be available soon to those that purchased CMO from Matrix ?

Yes, the current public beta is Steam only. I'm not sure there is going to be a non-Steam beta. Yes, of course, the final update will be available for all users...

Running the new Beta and updated last night to the 0.8 build through steam.

Screen seems to have a weird red banner now that pops up and disappears when you hover the mouse over menus.

It reappears and comes back when you move the pointer.

Same here. I’m also getting the intermittent red graphical band when moving the cursor over the menus in Build 1900.8. I’ve seen similar graphical glitches with some previous Public beta patches as well.

I'm a bit confused, I saw yesterday that "CMO v1.10 Build 1900.20 (Public Beta)" was released, unless I'm missing something that "Number" (1900.20) comes before "CMO v1.10 Build 1900.8"?

I would have thought that any release after "1900.8" would be a higher number

20 is higher than 8.

Is it not?

I'm Still running the non-steam V1.10 Beta Build 1892, is there a way to update to whatever the latest beta without steam? is there something non-steam coming that I should\have to wait for?

Thanks
Brian

Yes your right, my brain has gone, I was reading 20 as just "2",

I've done some stupid things this past week oddly enough

[Nikel]

I see that you created CMO scenarios in the past.

Time to design new ones to energize and entertain your brain

20 is higher than 8

But, notice the "."

When dealing with decimal numbers :
1900.8 it's the same as 1900.80
1900.20 it's the same as 1900.2

so 8 is greater than 2 when at the right of a decimal point.

I know that software versioning follows the ubiquitous X.Y.Z where each of X, y and Z are complete numbers of their own
So if we are talking software versioning, then 1900.20 comes after 1900.8 but as it does not have the Major.Minor.Patch semantic versioning format, it might be misleading.

Are people really having a hard time with this concept? There is more than enough context to figure it out.

That must explain it how my Brain is "Deciphering" it. Perhaps it should be "1900.8.0" and "1900.20.0?

This really is a dumb argument.

Software developers can be free to identify version numbers in their own ways, and it's really not complicated here.

The number after the decimal, in this context, is an increasing version number of a larger build number (in this case 1900).

The "basic" mathematical idea that the 'zero' at the end of the two can be rounded off to be "effectively" xxxx.2 does not apply here, due to the developer's own choices with how they decided to number builds of Command.

It's not a "normal" decimal point, and is just a way to separate smaller changes within a larger build.

This isn't new, and has been the case with their build numbers going back to the beginning of Command's history.
