[Feature Request] Check for updates every X minutes

[1upbyte]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Rare does not check for updates unless it is restarted. I often leave my PC / Rare running for a long time, and end up booting a game only for it to tell me an update is needed.

Describe the solution you'd like

An option for Rare to check every X minutes for an update,

Describe alternatives you've considered

I've thought about having update checking every time a game launches, but that may slow game launching performance a lot, especially for offline games that almost never update.

Additional context

Love the project!

I think when Rare launches & maybe a check for update button in the settings(Maybe game specific settings), anything else would properly slow down Rare..
But I'm not familiar enough with the code involved in the check for updates that I can give anymore info about the process..

No it wouldn't, there is such a button already in the top right corner although it is not fully operational. It refreshes the metadata from EGS but Rare doesn't fully react to them for various reasons.
