Modnix 4 Roadmap

[Sheep-y]

Must Dos

• Draw activity diagrams and system diagrams.
• Refactor code - use more local functions.
• Refactor code - rename files to better reflect purpose.
• Refactor code - integrate settings with main manager.
• Refactor code - normalise manager-gui communication.
• Refactor code - rewrite gui state to be more event driven.
• Refactor code - switch manager to mod api for config management.
• Refactor code - revise all mod info access.
• Multi-thread mod parsing.
• Separate mod loader logger from mod logger so that each mod can have own log level.
• Right-click menu on mod list and editor.
• Verify Mod Loader version, and perhaps injector / cecil version while we are at it.

High Priority

• Modnix and Per-mod settings panel - manual disable, log level, language, update flags, raw mod_info and override.
• Replace community buttons with dropdown on collapse.
• Review keyboard tab order.
• Mod profile, e.g. Skip Intro can have Intro only, Default, Default + Skip New Campaign.
• Switch setup path / bypass launch for setup.
• Split AppAction from ModAction.

Medium Priority

• Mod lifecycle to support in-game on/off.
• Use System.ComponentModel or System.Configuration attributes to annotate config class.
• Modnix config can be read at the same time as mod scanning, but before mod resolve.
• PPML version switch.

Low Priority

• Animate modnix icon.
• Pack Harmony and Cecil in Loader to further reduce exe size.
• Vortex integration?
• UUM support?
• Check nexus / github for mod updates.
