Parse unmanaged file location when creating ModInfoForeign #2053

Closed Silarn closed 3 months ago

I'm still trying to figure out what exactly prevents origins (mods) from having the root directory set as an 'alternate' so that they don't display conflicts. This isn't working for the 'secondaryDataDirectories' origins so the UI is displaying all of the unmanaged mods as conflicts with 'game_data'.

If anyone else can shed light on this, I'd be grateful. Maybe I'm too tired right now.

@Silarn Just to be sure, this is kind of independent from the Starfield PR? I.e., can be merged independently?

Silarn commented 3 months ago

While the changes are somewhat related to stuff that was done for Starfield, this shouldn't be dependent on any of the Starfield plugin changes. It's really more of a bugfix that primarily affects Starfield.

I'd still like to determine where MO is ignoring the root 'data' origin when determining alternates so that the secondary data directory doesn't get highlighted as a conflict.
