Unfortunately, it seems the file download platform isn't the best. Several times, the download goes into a waiting state and then stops. I'll try again when there are changes.

If you get any timeouts, you are likely experiencing packet loss, or some other connectivity issue of some kind which could be interfering with the download.

First of all thank you for your reply, the download link is efficient and fast, probably my problem was Chrome and energy saving from cell, solved with downloads manager and turning off energy saving. Thanks for the great work. A fantastic project that I'll gladly try.

Awesome!!! Any time frame when offline will have access to the update? No rush obviously, just curious how that will workout with monthly releases. It sounds like a lot of work!!!

As UA is online first, we aim for yearly Offline releases, so offline players will get massive changes all at once after features get some testing and playing on the online release, stuff may change.

The last Offline release was Sep 18th, so sometime Mid September next year. The delay between offline releases gives any Online updates time to gestate before finalizing them for offline release.
