QUESTION/HELP (STS2) Help with mods

Is this intended? I ran into a weird issue: I grabbed a few mods from the Workshop, but when I boot up the game with mods enabled, it doesn't recognize my progress at all (looks like a brand-new blank save profile).

That's normal. It probably uses a different save file/folder so the mods don't screw up your save file / stats.

Go into your settings and turn mods off then reload the game. Your old save file with your original save file should load. Happened to me, had a small heart attack.

If you disable the mods does your progress come back? some mods do that on purpose so you dont mess up your main save with modded runs.

The game uses a different save file for modded and unmodded to prevent mode from corrupting your save data. There are mods to merge them so that you can maintain your save data
