Implement Auto-Updater for the Game about codename-recon HOT 6 OPEN

I think the url of download in the popup will be nice to have no matter what.

Yeah, that makes sense, especially if there are problems with the automatic process.

Also, I think the automatic update, for minor version, I'm pretty sure can be done, we can simply switch the game.pck, and that should work (yeah, different os, will need different loginc), but when we change the engine version, that can be more tricky :)

Is the updater going to be part of the main application or separate? Most games I've seen usually have it separate.

It would be nice if it were integrated into the main application. But perhaps there are some technical reasons why it is typically offloaded to a dedicated updater.

I expect is easy to update, since some OS, will not allow to remove a file that is loaded, and can make things crash. Then we can simply download some small app, that will do the update, we can start this app and quit the current game, let the app download the update, and start it.

Also, with an external program, is possible that we can find some option already implemented
