We are trying to anticipate retiring updates for Windows XP in a future version.
It looks like this would be straight forward at that time by modifying the client or server script to check for the OS version and creating conditional actions in LUA.
I just want to make sure, I understand the mechanism correctly. It looks like:
- We include the current version of the client and client script in the current release.
- A future release will post the modified files to the server. They will be downloaded on update check at that time and with them we can exclude downloading an update for Windows XP. We can also create a dialog to notify Windows XP users that support has ended unless they update their OS.
In other words, the current scripts do not yet have to cover that situation.
