Every mod shows up as a dependency
After I restart my PC, satisfactory mod manager shows every mod as a dependency, and thus they are impossible to uninstall.
I use Linux (NixOS) and satisfactory mod manager 3.0.3, satisfactory from steam
my system is a bit exotic, so maybe the mod manager uses some other folder than
.local/share/Steam
, .cache/SatisfactoryModManager
, .local/share/SatisfactoryModManager

A mod is marked as a dependency if the profile doesn't include it, but the lockfile does. What I think happened is your profiles (in
~/.local/share/ficsit
iirc) somehow got reset, but the lockfile didn't (that one is stored in the game dir)Oh, that explains it. promise to not call me insane, but i do rm -rf / on every reboot and persist only selected directories
That is...a choice
that's... more than a choice... it's a statement! :thonk:
Use the ficsit cli to install mods on Linux
You don't need to use ficsit-cli, SMM works too. And ficsit-cli wouldn't have solved this issue either, it uses the exact same files as SMM (because SMM uses ficsit-cli internally)
