I think this is normal because the nighty build version number is generated with a
randomize algorythm.

Yes, this is normal. The server can't determine which random version number is bigger
unless it stores all nightly versions. But i think it is unnecessary.
Why do you need this feature? Nightly builds are only for testing.
Actually, the server has stored information about all uploaded nightly builds so it may be
possible.
When you run a nightly build now, update check should work for all newer official releases
(=no nightly builds).
Maybe we can also implement a checkbox to check for nightly builds too.
But it won't surely display any changeslog as it is stored only in Mercurial repository.
Is this really neccessary?
I think nightly update check could be useful. And another thing is to make real auto
updater - it shouldn't lead to download page but download new version in background, close
FFDec and auto extract in directory from it was launched.

I am not really fan of the autoupdater idea. I was thinking about it earlier, but dropped
it.
I know it could be usefull and quick for users, but... ehm... I don't like idea that users
won't visit my webpages anymore. Some users will download the program elsewhere and won't
ever notice how original webpages look like. I would also like to put something more on
the webpages... for example polls or announcements. I cannot do this without users
visiting the webpages.
I know it is annoying to visit webpages and install it everytime, but please consider it
as small tax for having the software totally free. Please understand us. Thanks.
Ok, maybe then make a nightly update channel (for nightly's only) with auto updater and
stable update channel with old (current) updater because nightly's comes very often and
yes it's a little annoying to visit download page several times a day?
Since 2.0.0 you can enable checking for nightly builds too.
See advanced settings.

Thanks for info but it would be better to open nightly download page
(/www.free-decompiler.com/flash/nightly.html) for nightly updates...
Btw I have latest (301cd60f49ee) nightly and it always (every time I open FFDec) shows
"New verision available" window (I've set update delay=123 for testing).
In new nightly eed3d652178a, you should not see it always.
Now it's OK, thanks!
