Using CKAN I often just update whatever needs updating (because it's so easy!) and I must admit I don't always check beforehand what was changed.\r\n\r\nI think it would be a good idea if mod metadata could have field which could be set to true if a mod update would break saves using an older version. This would mean that when CKAN attempts to update a mod and finds a \"Breaker of saves\" : \"True\" it can warn the user. The field would, I imagine, not do anything when you install a mod for the first time since then it won't be applicable.\r\n\r\nI have no Idea how impossible or easy this might be but it sounds like a good idea to me :)\n"}}
