Description

If a local package has a higher version number than the mod's Version field on the Depot, do not re-download the old Depot package and replace the new local one.

As discussed before the version field has no meaning at all as one can put everything in there so version comparison is almost impossible. Furthermore if one updates a mod locally it won't be updated from the depot anyway as there would have to be a new version on the depot which at that point isn't the case.

If you just want to prevent AEI from ever updating a single package you can just change the timestamp in AEI.cfg so e.g. the first digit is 3.

Well, my problem was that I didn't include an aei.cfg at all in my updated local package because I made it from a Depot-downloaded version of the package. I guess I'll just have to watch out for that in the future.
