Vega Strike is quite a big game... And downloading it
each time a new version is released is a pain for everyone
not having DSL. And it's waste of bandwidth anyway.

I suggest creating "upgrade patches" consisting of only
altered since previous version files... Most of game size
usually take graphics\sound, and I don't think they
change that frequent... And new\fixed_old ones can be
packaged into patches as well. If some files are removed
at all, it is possible to write a special program which will
wipe unnecessary files (it's not difficult), supply TXT with
description of obsolete files since last version, or simply
leave them as they are - usually they don't harm other
than take space (not always, but most of times).
