Please add mod selection groups

Post by TCC »

When loading a save that used particular mods, it does prompt you to sync mods, but if you wanted to select a certain default of mods within the mods menu, you have to remember exactly the ones to select, it would be lovely if you could just select a few mods and put them into a pack which you can rename. Meaning, in the mods menu that shows all the mods you have installed, the list may be very long, and if you have a particular set which you want to begin a new save from which you use commonly, you must hand-pick them, It would be nice if pinned at the top of the list there would be your groups/packs so you can easily select and checkmark a group of mods right from the menu.

🙏 Much appreciated, I pray this small but meaningful addition can make it into a 2.1 build!

This is easily accomplished already by creating a dummy save file with the desired mod set, selecting "sync mods with save" and uncheck the "Load save after restart" box.

I got bored and stopped searching. Good Luck, maybe this time they will add the feature that already exists.
