But why?
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

So I don't have to disconnect from a multiplayer server to see what mods they're using. And what versions! A certain pair of mods have been updated regularly recently.

This should already do what you want

Code: Select all

/c game.print(serpent.block(game.active_mods))

I'm aware that displays the relevant information, but I don't always have admin access on the server. Plus some players are bothered by the "a console command has been run" flag visible in the achievements screen.

I could also open mods.json and search for active = true, but that's about as much of a hassle as disconnecting to view the server browser entry.
