Starmade | Continue Last Play allows connection attempts to incorrect versions
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

This is a small usability bug.

After updating from a dev update. The test server was on a previous version 151 and I was on 153, but "Continue Last Play" allows you to connect to it anyway and hangs at "Connecting to Universe". When you use the online play menu, and deselect compatible, the client attempts a connection and the user gets an dialog that tells them the versions are different. These behaviors are different.
