i [✅ Done] Sort by Mod Load order

a month ago

Occasionally it's useful to check which mods have loaded into the game before other mods. I don't know how much you want Modlist UI to become a developer tool rather than a simple user-facing one, but if you have room for another column this could be useful.

Mods are loaded in the order that you find them in script.active_mods, so you can check them by running

/c for i in pairs(script.active_mods) do game.print(i) end

but that does get a bit unwieldy for longer lists.


Another semi-related suggestion is the ability to see mod dependencies, but since you can already from the game's Mods menu, it's not a priority.

I can do the mod-order one by making it the display order when no sort mode has been chosen. Currently, when no other sort other than by Title is chosen, then [Title - Ascending] is chosen as the fallback.

I can offer the non-sort mode of Title, ie. nothing is picked and nothing is ordered, to then load the default order.

Wube's official mods will still remain in their section, and User-pinned mods will still be at the very top.

Load order is usually the alphabetical slug / [name] order, which is what we see when exporting the dependency array/info.JSON skeleton. Or should at any rate.


Scraping and displaying mod dependancies wouldn't be difficult, but the visual real-estate is starting to get quite crowded in expanded-accordion, which was meant to house the elements currently seen, and even then the whole Description field often doesn't fit.

Modlist UI is aimed to be streamer-first, and the list of developer-facing features is starting to get to a substantial point that I'm questioning what audience this is really for.

But back on topic, I can perhaps offer a hover-element, since those can be any size, but nothing concrete. Next you'll likely want that to be a fixed element one can actually click on the dependancies for, and it skip to that mod in the list.

Should now be available in the latest release. All category headers have a tristate sort, Asc, Desc and Nil. A nil state means nothing has a sort and all unpinned non-wube mods should be in name-slug order. This is as close as we will get to an actual "mod load order"
