#Server needs restarting every time one of the mods update.

Like the title says, is there a way to STOP steam from autoupdating? This is incredibly annoying as a pack with over 400 mods makes it impossible for anyone to join after the first one joins.

Just repack all the mods into your own modpack, post it to the Workshop, and set the visibility to "Unlisted" (link only)

Will that stop the mods from updating?

#

as a mod updates on itself whenever an author updates it, or atleast thats how it seems

By repacking them, you are:

Creating a "Snapshot": You take the current files and upload them as a brand-new, separate entry in the Workshop.

Severing the Link: Since you are now the "author" of this new upload, the original modders can't push updates to your version.

Privacy: Setting it to "Unlisted" means only your friends/players with the link can see it, avoiding copyright issues with the original creators

#

Not all modders allow repacking their mods into a separate modpack, but I think if it's just a server for you and your friends, it’s not a big deal

Yeah, no intention of going public

#

just extremely annoying having to restart because someone crashes etc

#

Will this thread close?

#

or can i use it to look at what im doing

This is what ivr been wanting to do since 42.13.2 since as far as my small personal group of me + 1-2 extra players we just want to have a long term world and especially in 42.14.1, things were extremely stable/the mod list was complete

But trying to search actually how to "Repack all the mods into a single time locked upload" of sorts , especially here, is just responded with " no you must suffer the updates and breaking of game versions/mods and screw you for playing with personal friends" (no information)
