Looks like this thread took a strange turn.
GS23g was updated earlier this morning by the way, which is not uncommon (there's usually a delay of a few hours and up to 2 days after patches).
@skylax: I understand the displeasure, and it certainly doesn't hurt to voice your concerns and make feature requests. Eugene is busier than ever though (new country, new job, etc), so I'm not sure how much of what you're asking is possible for him to deliver.
The check for new version requires a number of manual actions in which I'm also involved, so there's naturally a bit of delay (couple of hours) due to the availability of 2 people living in significantly different time zones.
I'm not a software dev myself, therefore I don't know if updating pointers for version change can be automated at all. If it was possible, wouldn't Eugene (or anyone else making FM tools) implement it after all these years? Surely, nobody likes the frustration that comes with every new patch release. Another problem is that a patch can require way more tweaks than a mere version change, and there's no chance to automate that.
The in-game scout issue remains a mystery as he's unable to replicate it.
Sale value should probably be renamed to something else (e.g. probable sale value) because asking price in-game is a "live" calculation that changes constantly and has been impossible to crack for anyone who tried it.
Some of your requests are interesting and I've forwarded them to Eugene to evaluate for the future.
