       Pro-Tip!

       Hey guys n gals, just a quick pro-tip on Empy that I picked up
       last few weeks testing out beta versions pre-release: Disable
       auto-updates on Empyrion - Make it update only when the game
       starts option etc, or when you tell it to specifically.
       That way when new releases are published, the version of
       Empyrion does not update automatically (noob mistake/default
       settintgs!) and create a situation where you cannot connect to
       the server until the next day.
       Empyrion devs are fantastic in that they release a LOT of
       patches, and the updates/testing runs usually last about 1 week
       no more, so this means it updates frequently "test often,
       release often" mantra.
       It makes a lot sense to disable auto-updates to Empyrion because
       of this, unlike most of your other steam games which do not
       update so frequently/have such awesome devs.
       my2c.
       Change the settings try it out then hate me if its not 1000%
       better ;-)

       I don't see how setting it to only update when you start the
       game will help as the moment you started Empyrum, Steam will
       update it and you cannot stop it. If the update is very new then
       the Server will still be on the old version preventing you from
       logging on. If you don't want Empyrum (and all your other games)
       to auto-update then restrict auto-updating to a time period you
       don't usually logon to Steam (in settings/downloads) and turn
       off 'Allow downloads during Gameplay'.
