Installing Console Arcs onto an existing Modded Ch.4 installation does not force a full re-install

[drojf]

Installing Console Arcs onto an existing Modded Ch.4 installation still gives the option to update or reinstall, when it should only give you the option to re-install (or rather, behave as if it was the first time you installed the mod).

It looks like it just treats it as an existing Console Arcs install, and attempts to update it according to the installedVersionDAta.json versions, even though it's a different mod.

The installedVersionData.json contains the correct information about what was last installed in the id field, (eg. "Himatsubushi Ch.4/full"), so something isn't working correctly.

I re-checked this and actually it does detect that every file needs update with

Full Install Required to overwrite existing mod - [Himatsubushi Ch.4/full] is currently installed, but want to install [Console Arcs/full]

So the issue isn't as bad as I thought it was. I'm not sure if I imagined it earlier, or I accidentally clicked Ch.4 instead of Console arcs.

However it still shows two buttons (one for update, one for re-install), despite every file needing update.

I was thinking about how to make it only show one button, since I thought both buttons did the same thing, but actually they do slightly different things:

• the "Start Update" button will install all console files. Once complete, it will update the install version data (as console arcs)
• the "Re-install from scratch" button will first clear the version data (the information about the existing modded Ch.4 install), and after that perform an install. Once the install is completed, it would update the install version data again (as console arcs)

Given that both buttons will do the right thing, and that in some cases you may really want to clear the version data, I'm just going to leave these buttons in for now rather than try to fix it.

For now, I'll add a small subtitle under each button so you know the exact difference in this kind of scenario (that re-install will clear the version data)
