I like this idea a lot. Perhaps a button on the stack trace that players could click to submit the error directly to the mod portal page?

but for some reason no-one created a mod that removes quality module in crushers. Maybe i haven't found one

I know that there are at least two ... those are all over the place when you type "quality" in the mod portal, really indicating that many players wants to have it more accessible ...

... I did:

First Error:
1. Download Cargo Ships version 2.0.21 from the mod portal.
2. Start a server with Cargo Ships enabled.
3. In single player, create a blueprint book with a blueprint inside it. It can be any kind of blueprint. Place the blueprint book in your "My Blueprints" library.

... s a save attached which is after waiting some time; note the use of the mod not on portal, which is attached. If you start a new game, you can just use the console to teleport to the affected surface.

What did you do?
I'm making a Warptorio-style mod where the player can teleport between surfaces. I've used surface.find_non_colliding_position to ... once, or sometimes?
Always.

This involves one mod not currently on the portal, so kindly see attached. To reproduce just start a new game with that ...

You might want the mod list, too.

That would indeed be amazing. But I'd be happy to start with something, anything at all, rather than wait for perfection that never happens. Right now, I don't even know if people who download my mod have a problem at all.

Automatic Crash report for mod would be amazing yeah

I have written a mod and I know from bug reports that it occasionally causes a problem.

Is there a way to surface these automatically on the mod portal? As a developer, I'd love to be able to see how often my mod causes a problem (by version) and if the stack dumps were available too, it would make it ...

I half expected the credits to roll or something when I clicked finish (like Minecraft when you go into the end portal for the first time)

Why?
It would be a nice thing to have, doubly so if you got some kind of credit roll.
