On downloading new versions of a UMC

(Not sure this is the right forum.)

If I want to download a new version of a UMC, do I need to delete the old version first?
I have heard that overwriting old versions with new ones can cause problems, but I'm not sure if that applies to campaign add-ons.

AFAIK you don't need to, but I guess it wouldn't hurt if you did just to be safe.

-I've never had a problem with it though.

I have nearly always did it over the old one, and it never got confused AFAIK.

No need to, I'm pretty sure.

You should delete it because sometimes the campaign dev will change the filename of a unit (or scenario) and change something about it, but not change the id. Then the file will not over-write and the game might load the wrong file.
