Some of the behaviors of the Launchpad's mod manager pane require new mod statuses to be present for disambiguation. Without them (or an external config file, which feels a little clunky), the Launchpad can't correctly process these scenarios:
- A mod is implicitly enabled by a deriving mod. (
Implied)
- A mod is enabled, but is also implicitly enabled by a deriving mod. (
EnabledDependency? Dunno, still figuring out the terminology here... and possibly even how the Launchpad should handle it in the first place.)
The Launchpad can safely write the relevant values to mods.txt. Per lines 349-350, any value other than "Forced" and "Enabled" is interpreted as "Disabled". However, any scripts calling saveState() at line 381 via the saveModState() global function (used by the ingame mod menu and the mod editor) will then overwrite those values with an actual "Disabled" value, which is not ideal.
This is a low-priority tweak, as it should hopefully only affect users who are using both the Launchpad and the ingame mod menu, and users which use the mod editor. Even then, it'll only have an impact in very specific contexts, and will only amount to a QoL inconvenience whenever it affects them at all.
