 # Progression: Loader
 
-This project pulls from the three steam workshop collections of Progression, then it searches through your installed mods, in the workshop folder and matches the steam id to a package id, and Formal name, then it takes those names, package ids and steam ids and creates the modloader modslist, thats a mouth full, and save it to your modslist fodler so all you have to do is launch the game. The merge button will take your currently ENABLED mods and merge them with the latest progression pack to give you a new modslist called progresisonhomebrew which you can sort and load.

 DLC detection is based on NotOwned_x.png if the user doesnt the same package NAME as the not owned png it doesnt proceed. 
 .envs populate pre loaded data, only change if their is an update to collection url
 Doesnt sort so the current guidence to autosort from base game mod manager will still apply.
