I had a big and very good surprise this morning when I had the strange idea to download and try to install VS again on my computer... not only it is not dead, but more... there was a new version dating a few weeks earlier!!!
I played VS for a long time before, something like... 15 years ago??!! Even try to participate a time to translations of the game (I'm french)... but as it didn't show any evolution with time I finally gave up
I didn't need a long time to decide: I downloaded the latest release from github for my ubuntu 16.04 (vega-strike_v0.6.0-Ubuntu-xenial_x86_64.deb file) and launched it for install with the classical sudo apt-get...
First very stranger problem I got: apt-get didn't see it!!

Error: Failed to find Version.txt anywhere.
So I downloaded the Assets-Production-0.6.2.tar.gz file from github repo, unpacked it and I saw there is a vsinstall.sh (but no README file or any help to start with all the process). I supposed I just had to launch this script in the command line...
But no way to get it. Once the script is finished, can just do no more than what I got with the deb file And I couldn't get more with the vsUTCS_v0.6.2.deb...
I'm surely missing something but from here I'm totally lost.
Can anyone here tell me how to get around this install process please? If it's impossible I'll go back to 0.5 version (I didn't expect to find a newer one so it's not a problem) but i'd find it very cool to test this new version.
Thanks a lot and don't get lost in the coldest sea
