Per discord discussion, I'm suggesting setting up a remote file in a repository in the Community Core github account, that would be downloaded and stored locally by AML, updated on each AML start.
The file would contain the following information about mods:
Mod compatibility information (conflicts, manual resolution steps, known issues)
Warn if the user tries to play WOTC with a vanilla mod that is known to be incompatible with WOTC.
Warn if the user tries to use a mod that has a newer and better version available.
Warn if the user tries to use a mod that has another bugfix mod available.
Since some of these suggestion would be up to preference, it would be useful if each information entry had a unique identifier, so that the AML user could permanently disable it via "don't show this specific message to me again" button or checkbox.
Popups could get pretty annoying, so I suggest adding a status icon somewhere in the AML's top panel, which would display green/yellow/red status depending on the severity of issues present in someone's modlist, or lack thereof. The list of issues would be displayed on a mouseover/click of this icon.
For example, using LW2 in WOTC would be an instant red.
Since these issues would be different for vanilla XCOM 2 and WOTC, perhaps two status icons are in order, displayed right near the Launch XCOM 2 / Launch WOTC buttons.
If I could code, I'd be all over this. As is, as a loyal Xcom/AML/modded user, I'd be happy to contribute in any useful way possible.
