So i make a callout pack called On the beat Callouts. i have updated it recently and its been filed for manual security checks due to executable code in my pack. I however have no idea what code is making this happen as others with more complex codes seem to be getting their packs checked way before mine, i uploaded my file about 18hours ago and its still not been checked. 

 

Its really hurting my download count and availability of my mod in general.

 

The things i have in my mod is other peoples API's, albo's code for checking lspdfr and computer plus version but i am not collecting any data nor am i doing actual version checks to whats available online, that i know of.

 

Just need some advice to help me understand why my files have such a long check time while other packs are sailing through the checks and are released within the hour of them updating.

All plugins & scripts get held for manual approval and scanning by our team.

Just to add to this -- we use a bunch of signals and mechanisms when it comes to approving files.

Certain signals will definitely cause a delay, and certain mechanisms we employ can definitely delay an approval.

I can't get in to our exact process for security reasons, but I am aware this is a bit annoying and we can certainly make the user experience better (for example, allowing the older version to be downloaded whilst the newer one is being approved).

Thank you for the information, that would defiantly be a improvement, because as i take it the mod it totally hidden from being viewed by anyone while the security check is being made so just using my mod for an example as its what i know. No one could see my callout pack for 18ish hours.

 

Even if they could see the page for it but have the downloads blocked for the new version until checked, people could have a message on there saying the new version is up for review. I like that idea alot.

 

Anyways thanks for the clarification, i understand why and i would want to be thorough with the checks too, its peoples computers and data that could be at risk.

 

While on the subject, is there a way to delete an old version without having to use the upload a new version system as i made a mistake with naming my rar files yesterday and then had to wait through another security check because i deleted the old rar and hadn't changed the new version at all. Again i understand why and it could be me making a silly mistake but it was the only way i could find to do it.
