Will the patch work if there are modified (modded) files in the script-folder when the patch is applied?

No idea, but we cannot support modded games, so we recommend to have them separate and patch on a clean official install first, BTW something we are working on as well so it will be much easier to have mods in the future without manipulating the main game.

From this patch on we have changed the numbering scheme between Slith servers and the engine and how they communicate, so yes after this patch froward we will no longer be kept hostage by the slow Apple approval process... we have submitted last Monday... sigh...

Side note, the new 1.6 Beta patch we want to release as fast as possible as soon as 1.5.2 is life on Steam. More news next week.

So you guys are patching faster than Apple can approve the patch? Ugh, that's frustrating for you and for us.

Apple`s approval and patch process policy shows how much they care about their App customers really.

Sorry guys, we are irritated as well and all we can do is wait... it is disgrace IMHO.
