Okay so i have a frame mover system. Sometimes i find i need to add certain frames to the default and i need the ui to check when someone downloads an update if new frames were added to the default table and if so add them to the variables. Without wiping anything the user may have added in between versions. Can I somehow have it version check then if it finds that its a new version compare the default table to the current saved variables and then copy only the missing entry's?

This is the relevant part of the code. Note that the addon already stores the last version its accessed via addon.settings.version a tonumber will be required. Edit- i added the beginning of the function for it just dont know how to make the tables compare and then add to accordingly.

local addonName, addon = ...

addon:RegisterDefaultSetting("lockFrames", false)
