Patches?

Hey, I'm still new to KOLmafia, and don't know how anything works.. I downloaded a patch file for something, can't remember what. its .patch. how do i apply the patch? I've been looking all over for an answer but I can't find anything.. Sorry if this is a question answered a lot.

thanks!

the only .patch file ive seen is for the crimbo areas, the file has now been removed by a mod... unless there is another .patch file somewhere on the board i dont think anyone will help until crimbo has ended

thats the one.
it was removed, though? why?

I removed your attachement per our current stand on automating Crimbo content.

the load on the servers during crimbo is incredibly high, any automation of crimbo content, the .patch would allow that, is frowned apon
