We have released a new version of fuel-core `v0.36.0`. This release includes some **breaking changes** that will not be forward compatible. We will upgrade the state transition function by the end of this week. Thus, to follow the network, you must upgrade to use this binary; otherwise, if you continue to use the old binary, you will be not be able to follow the network.  
To ensure a smooth transition, we recommend that you begin using the new binary immediately, so that when we upgrade, everything works smoothly for you.

You can refer to the release notes for more details: [Releases · FuelLabs/fuel-core · GitHub](https://github.com/FuelLabs/fuel-core/releases)

@naz3eh

To update chain config we have to git pull in the folder and for downloading the latest release I did wget but the problem is existing node which is running is stopped and the new release starts with new sync. How to avoid that?

sure, thanks. If there’s an snapshot file which we can directly sync, that would be very helpful.

Hey @anipaul2, it shouldnt start syncing from the start, if that happens can you share more info? to start with output for the `fuelup show` and logs while running the node

It sync from the starts if there’s a new release like v0.36 where I did first git pull the chain-config then did wget of new release, after I did wget and then ran the node again after stopping the previous one, it started from first.

After I did git pull and updated the new release too, it’s again stuck in one block.
