1.5.10 beta option is shown underneath version 1.5.1, not 1.5.9

I think this is a problem with how computer systems order numeric files. It will always order versions based on 1,2,3, etc. so right now it’s 1.5.1, 1.5.10,1.5.2,1.5.3. So 1 is treated the same as 10 as the program begins counting/ordering from the decimal point rather than the last number. The only way to solve this, I think, would be to plan ahead for going into the teens and start the version numbers as 1.5.01, 1.5.02, 1.5.03, etc which would then put 1.5.11 in the correct place.

Hopefully Steam can override this.
 
TW's numbering system is silly.

Imagine my surprise when I learned today that yesterdays 1 gig patch was hotfix and not actual patch (since beta patch was not present after 1.5.9), so much for hmm this patch did not break our mod.
