How does it work

Diag

Mods are all stored in a Staging Directory. Each mod is stored by an ID :

  • Workshop mods are identified by their Workshop ID
  • Local mods are identified by a generated ID that should not collide with any Workshop mod

The Deployment process will create a symlink in the selected directory.
When changing directory, linked mods will be scanned and refreshed.
