Hello!

Is there a way to load the version number under "Global Game Settings" > "Other" into a game using code?
This would be really useful when comparing versions in for example multiplayer games etc.

Other smart and easy ways to do this are also appreciated.

Don't think so, I just create a global variable that holds my game versionso:
Game_Version = "1.5.3";

But to check if theres a newer version you may have to store all the numbers as separate variables or bundled together such as:
Game_Version = 153;
If the next version is 167, you can just compare the numbers that way to check if its a newer version.

But then I have to edit it twice everytime I update my game

Yeah, there's also another game version located in: Resources > Global Game Settings > Info
Which i'm manually editing as well, so i've got a total of 3 to change every version.
