Describe your proposed solution
Let the user to select download cache folder to another drive etc.
For example, i have 130 GB of storage on main SSD and i cant install GIGlb cuz of big archives. If i'd select second HDD drive as cache -> i can download archives on it and then install game on main SSD.
By default cache folder would be %GameFolder%.

Download archives to overridden folder then patch/install game with hdiff/7z.

Heyyo~! Thank you for submitting enhancement request for Collapse!
Due to IRL situations we cannot implement this just yet, but here are some alternatives you can do :
You can do that by doing this command
mklink /H {path to your game folder}/{full filename of the package} {path to the actual file}Note that this method is slower due to having to download each files separately instead of one big archive.
For updating, simply edit the
config.inifile in your game folder to the current version of the game. Then restart Collapse. Once you loaded in, go to game repair and do a full repair. This will check and then prompt you to download all the files necessary to run the target version you desired.Note that this will only work when the game target version becomes live (not a preload).
For installing, you can use our sister project, MinimalInstaller
