           Summary: Game upgrades an .rpgdir inplace
           Product: OHRRPGCE
           Version: Nigtly WIP Builds (Ypsiliform)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: GAME.EXE (General)
        AssignedTo: ohrrpgce at lists.motherhamster.org
        ReportedBy: teeemcee at gmail.com


I never realised that when loading and upgrading an unlumped RPG, Game modifies
the files in place. I thought that Game was meant to never modify a game!

If this is acceptable, it would still be a problem for playing games from
read-only media.


I think this might have been brought up before: copying the whole folder to a
temporary location would negate all benefits of using .rpgdirs in the first
place, while an alternative would be to copy only upgraded lumps (see bug 92)
