How to update single player?
I'm playing single player + saradomin launcher. How do I update myself since the git is not updated for us yet?

Re: How to update single player?
Edit: I updated this post to make the proccess a bit more complete for anyone reading and following these steps in the (near) future
In case you don't have Linux on hand. I just download the server source, extract it and then use the run-server.bat file to make it build a new server.jar file. All you really need is a JDK installed on your system. It would be best in this case to have the same version JDK installed as the Java Runtime (JRE) version used by the single player install. Which should be JDK version 11 at the time of writing. After building the file, I just copy that server.jar file to my single player folder and replace the server.jar file in it.
Keep in mind to also check if there have been changes to the worldprops\default.conf file you may want to add to your singleplayer as well as the data\botcache and data\configs folders and ObjectParser.xml. Those could also have been changed through MR's. If you opt to just use the defaults.conf file from the source, keep in mind you need to change a few variables in the file for single player to work properly. Just open the defaults.conf file through a text editor and find and update the following variables:
debug = false
dev = false
daily_restart = false
bots_influence_ge_price = true
Be sure to backup your data\eco (grand exchange) and data\players folders so your progress is safe in case you break something during the update.
And then just startup single player as usual. If you did everything right, single player should start up as normal but with the server running on the latest state of the source code. Keep in mind that this could be a few MR's newer then the live multiplayer server, depending on when you download the source file.

And then cross your fingers you didn't miss or forget anythingBe sure to backup your data\eco (grand exchange) and data\players folders so your progress is safe in case you break something.
