Currently when downloading modules for Autopatcher, apup starts by downloading Non-critical updates.

Doesn't it make more sense to get the Critical ones first?

This is a continuation from this thread here. Although I agree with you, it's not a top priority because you still download all updates at the same time.

Hey Cyrus, take it easy!

I posted a feature request because I think this is a valid idea. In fact it was _you_ who suggested that I should add a feature request...

I was just answering his question. Although I agree with you, you should post in the feature request form to propose that change.

Thank you for changing the download order to download Critical updates first. However, since the critical.apm file is not downloaded until all updates are downloaded there is no chance of using only the critical updates.

Could you change the download order so that the respective apm file is downloaded after the download of each folder?

This isn't possible unfortunately. To minimize the amount of connections to our servers, all apms will zipped into one file. UZ.exe will then unzip all the files during the finalize process which is the final step in the process
