Terran Recursive Updates Compatibility.

This feature changes how Federal Unit Manager handles
the game's .csv files. Now Terran Command's Rows and collumns will populate based on the "shape"
of the .csv file meaning FUM v2.0r is both forwards and backwards compatible with any version of
Terran Command. No more waiting for updates since it'll just work regardless and you won't have
any messed up formatting anymore. This same version can be used to open any version of Terran
Command's .csv files regardless of game version.


Modpacks are Obsolete and no longer supported

You see that correctly. Modpacks can no longer be read by Federal Unit Manager. They have been
replaced with far more sophisticted data files called "FonData" files. These stand for Foreign
Data. FonData has your mods in them as well as much more intricate, intelligent data. FonData
files are shared instead of Modpack files.
Inside of FonData files are an optional new data protocol called FragData. This stands for
Fragment Data. FragData is the true beauty here. Fragdata allows you to send mods to your friends
without losing compatibility with other mods affecting the same entity. Meaning you can install
a mod that changes a Unit's weapons while installing a different mod that changes that same unit's
health and speed without losing compatibility or choosing between one or the other. FragData inside of
of FonData is completely optional for the mod creator but, unless needed otherwise, it's recommended
you always use FragData in your FonData. This makes sharing and creating Mods for Terran Command SO much easier!
You can have incompatible and compatible entities in a single Fondata if you so choose.
To add FragData in your FonData, go to "Package Mod" in Settings and Right-Click Entities and select the FragData you'd like to isolate.
