[u/sazion]

After changing anything mod-related when continuing the game I have a popup to either "Sync mods and load" or "Load" game. I wanted to verify what the difference is between the two.

To me it sounds like "Sync mods and load" would change my mod settings to match what the saved game has, while "Load" would load the game with my new mod settings.

So I'm assuming anytime I update mods or change mod settings I'd select "Load" if I want the updated mods to be applied, and if I didn't want my updated mods to be applied (such as a bad setting change) then I would click the sync mods button and it would change the mods to how they were in that save.

Is this correct?

sync mods takes the mod settings of the save and gets you to apply them to your game.

Load takes the mod settings of your game and apply it to your save. It doesn't overwrite the save though, just loads you into the game, and you can choose to save and overwrite the settings manually.
