+Andrew Davie Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 (edited) Update the menu code to maintain an (optional) timer, and when that runs out, periodically query the PlusStore for "something". For example, the chat could every 5 seconds enter into the waitspinner and ask the PlusStore if there's any new content. Or, a main menu could every minute or so ask the PlusStore to regenerate the menu. This would update the chat room message count, automatically show any newly added ROMs/content, notifications of "update firmware", etc., etc. The timer would be reset to 0 every time there's user interaction. So, you'd have to have a period of inactivity and the menu says "hey, let's check to see if any changes" It could be quick, too -- the plusstore says "nope" and everyting continues -- just the cost of the comms time. OR, plusstore says "yep" and the menu exits, and plusstore generates a new menu... This would be great, as you could open the chat room and just sit back and watch as the messages come in.
