Defining minimum version required for map #127

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

The current release of EntityPlus has feature set X.
The next release of EntityPlus may have feature set X + feature Y

If a map makes use of feature Y, then anyone that still runs the old release 
cannot play this map. It would be nice if the level designer can define a 
minimum version for his map, preferably in the .arena file.

The mod could read the minimum version and if that is newer than the version 
that is running, it could for instance not include the map in the single player 
map selection list, or better yet, show it but in a disabled state with a 
"requires version X" text superimposed on top of the levelshot.

I was just thinking about this the other day.  : )

I just want to say that if this is difficult to program, then I would be okay 
with having the version declared in the worldspawn entity, if that's easier.
