If you logout the program in the background can upload the new data, then download new data and insert it in the file, before the user enters the world again -that way you would achieve loading data from a site, but not while remaining in the game all the time.  |
Sure you can. Addon files are loaded on UI reload. You keep a blank with an empty table, you have a client that saves new data to that file rather than a SavedVariable. All you have to do is reload to get new data in to the client.
