Using Fody/Costura to embed multiple dlls into single one about gtacoop HOT 4 OPEN

Seems overly complex, this does the job for my projects, it's a single class, requires a single call per embedded assembly.

Do we really need to bundle dlls? Clients wouldn't be able to update other components on their own, such as NativeUI. And there isn't much a difference between drag and dropping one dll or four.

I don't see much need for it, either way, most players would not update NativeUI on their own, and even if they did, they'll probably assume the one packed with the mod is newer.

Also the link I provided only uses the embedded assemblies when they're missing, so if you have an NativeUI in the same folder, it will use that instead.

I bundle because it removes the risk of having someone unzip only some of the files or overwrite with ones from someone else's mod. So for instance if someone else has NativeUI in their zip and it's bogus, then your mod is toast.

Not a big concern right now though. You are doing great work and I don't want to distract you :-)
