If the add-on was downloaded by the host from RTB - you will download it straight from RTB instead of from the server.

If it's not on RTB, you'll download it normally from the server, and not as a .zip.

Question on the content downloader:
If I have downloaded a mod from RTB, and tweaked it for my own use... then I join a server with that same mod (minus the tweak) - what happens?
will RTB download an update and clobber my tweak? or leave it alone? or will it complain?
Also - ive had no problems connecting to other servers since 3.4 came out. however the day before that, I was working in offline mode (due to ISP issues) and every 30 sec to 1min, the game would freeze for 2-3sec and then continue.. almost like it was still trying (and failing) to connect to the servers. Ive used offline mode before and never had that problem.

If the versions differ, it will overwrite it. It isn't meant to overwrite full add-ons with content however, which is what v3.5 will correct.
