Updating a mod after it has been published
You are free to update your mod once published. You can do this by making changes to your mod, then choosing File > Publish to Steam Workshop. Now at the bottom of the window a section to add change notes will appear. Here you can describe what you have changed. Once you’re ready you can press Update and your changes will be published to the Steam Workshop. Anyone who has subscribed to your mod will have the new version automatically downloaded the next time they start the game.
