Craig worked on improving the update experience for PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding by addressing a user interface issue during update checks. He eliminated the distracting flashing console window by replacing the use of io.popen with the built-in Lua helpers GetScriptPath and GetRuntimePath for path resolution. This scripting change ensured correct path assignment and prevented pollution of the global namespace, resulting in cleaner and more maintainable code. By focusing on bug fixing and code hygiene, Craig enhanced the reliability and stability of the update flow, reducing user distraction and the likelihood of support tickets related to update UI behavior.
