Auto-Update needs to be optional #335

Description I never in my life have loved a mod loader as much as this mod loader, but for the love of everything that is joyous in this world, forced mod auto-updates is extremely inconvenient and more often than not campaign-breaking. Please, for a QoL update that can benefit literally every person who uses this program, make it an option in settings. You are amazing for making this, but it could be more amazing. Thank you for your hard work and lovely program. :)

Workshop mod updates are handled by Steam, not AML, so it's not possible for AML to manage them.

It should be possible to disable auto update for XCOM 2 in its steam options, though, right?

Not 100% sure, but AFAIK that affects only the game itself, not the associated UGC

Hmm, I didnt know that, but if that's the case, you've saved me a lot of headache.

As pointed out, nothing that AML can do here.
