Going into singleplayer, picking a save, and clicking the "sync mods with save" button opens a modal.
In the modal, if you uncheck the "Load save after sync" checkbox, you should NOT load yourself into the game/map. but it still does it.
Reproducible 100% of the time.

Expected:
Unchecking the checkmark should NOT load into the game.

What happens:
Regardless of whether the checkmark is checked, you are still loaded into the save.

Funny, I've had just the opposite where it doesn't load into the game and just loads into the main menu but it's random. I know this because I commonly switch between my main "vanilla" game and a sandbox world where I have various mods to help review productivity when testing.

Guess that feature just needs to be reviewed in general.

Thanks for the report. This is now fixed for the next release.
