Updater bugfixes

Fixed

Some update process bugs on Linux and Windows

• Restart args
• General file allocating

Updated to TLS13

SSL3 was Obsolete

More QoL and Changed Framework

QoL

Help command was awkward so an option was added to search by plugin name reference instead of only command name.

Three command-name methods were added for API usage. More on that in the wiki.

Linux port saw some attention with updating more path variables.

Framework change

Switched from .NET Standard 2.0 to .NET 6.0.

Other

Changed from x86 CPU profile to ANY CPU compiler profile.

Linux port and QoL

Porting to Linux required a change from netstandard2.0 to .NET 6.0. Plugins can still be written in netstandard2.0.

The start.cmd has been updated to timeout instead of pause. A start.sh startup script has been included as well. Please modify the variables as necessary.

version 1.3.62.31 -> 1.3.65.32

Changed

• If program disconnects and cannot reconnect due to instanced variables, the program will shut down, and granted there is a reconnect script, will
  then restart.
• "--help" command is now disabled unless command name specified in startup arguments.

Added

• Two startup arguments, --skip-update for skipping the update-check step, and --automated for skipping the manual plugin load step. With these two, unattended running is possible in the case of an unexpected crash.

Reconnect-process fix

This update is fixing a problem that arouse from switching to a halt and wait for input upon plugin exceptions. Errors in this domain meant a bot would not properly reconnect when service was suddenly interrupted. Now this fix ought to cause reconnects to be handled properly again.

version 1.3.60.30 -> 1.3.62.31

Changed

• A plugin throwing an exception will now timeout instead of wait for input
• Program should properly shut down the current process when updating

Bug fixes

version 1.3.56.28 -> 1.3.60.30

Changed

• "Up to date" message only shows conditionally after entering "y"

Fixed

• Reader output null or empty data mitigation
• Reload command properly re-initializes plugins

Removed

Notes

• There is a random connection error upon startup that is difficult to
  troubleshoot but it might be fixed in this update (as in after the
  changes it has not happened again)
