[Tool] KenshiTools

[Laurient]

Today, i've made a small program to "manage" mods coming from the workshop.
(mainly copy from the workshop folder to the kenshi mods folders)

Hoping it will help somebody else

Important note for anyone using this tool, the game will only use the mod folder version if you have both. Which means you will NOT receive any updates that are released for said mod(s) unless you copy the mod back over, which will overwrite any potential changes you might have made.

One other thing. Please do not upload other people's mods without permission. Even if you made changes to it, it is their mod as the base.

Ok, i wasn't sure about that, i will add a status when a mod is updated on the workshop side.
... and another button to backup/restore mod from the kenshi mods folder.

Should i add the thing about not uploading others people mods somewhere in the program ?

Yes please.

Another thing I'd suggest is a button to delete the mod folder version. In my case, I often open other people's mods to check how they did something or look for a bug that has been reported. After I've done so I usually delete the mod folder version to avoid issues.

This tool will already save me quite a bit of time when doing all that, it'd be great if it could delete files after I don't need them. It would completely eliminate the need to open the folders during the process.

This seems like an amazing tool, except that it doesn't work for me at all. Unable to open blah blah app manifest, because my install is on my D:\ drive instead of my C:\ drive.

Maybe update this to auto detect, use a manual directory input, or make a version for a D:\ drive?
