Automatic updates causing nested folders

[PacFox]

I have automatic updates of the plugin enabled through the global ASF setting however I noticed after several updates the folder structure has now become plugins/FreePackages/FreePackages/FreePackages/FreePackages/FreePackages/FreePackages/. My guess this is caused due to the plugin being zipped in a FreePackages root folder and the updater extracts the folder structure as is. Checking the official plugin ArchiSteamFarm.OfficialPlugins.Monitoring zip file it doesn't seem to use a root folder just having the plugin files right away.

Do you also have ASFEnhance?

Nope, my only custom plugin is FreePackages which I had initially extracted in it's own FreePackages folder in my plugins folder.

This is because FreePackages.zip provided has FreePackages directory inside.

Each tag should have appropriate release available on GitHub with zip file release asset that includes your plugin binary files. The binary files that include your IPlugin classes should be available in the root directory within the zip file.

This is something @Citrinate can fix easily without causing any breaking changes, merely updating zip structure.

Removed the FreePackages folder inside the zip, shouldn't have this problem anymore. During initial install of the plugin you should still make sure that all of the plugin files exist within their own FreePackages folder (or whatever you care to name it).

I also experienced this behavior when testing if the plugin dll is located directly in the plugins folder. Everything works correctly if the plugin files are instead placed in their own separate folders.
