Technically details

• Before load profile, FabGrub saves user mods folder inside fabgrub folder
• After close game, FabGrub restore user mods folder from fabgrub
• If the profile contains incompatible mods, user will see that combination
• Mods will be downloaded from https://re146.dev/factorio/mods/
• All mods will be cached in special folder

What is profile loading?

Load profile means that for each mod range in profile must be a selected compatible version and putted into folder mods

Concrete version of mod can require another mod to be installed, that requirement must be solved automatically (not manual)
