After Download processing indicator #2010

Open LukeNexusMods opened 2 months ago

When downloading mods that are large, there can be a large amount of time between the end of the download and the mod appearing in the library.

Can we please have some indication within the app that lets the user know something is processing so they know to wait for the mod to appear?

If you want to see the behavior yourself, download a 12gb mod and see how long it takes for it to appear in the library.

If we show downloads in the library then I would expect we would have a progress bar for processing at the end of the DL on the library item.

There is also an issue when installing a larger mod where it can take a while for the mod to appear in the installed mods list but there is no indication that something is happening within the app.
