So we can set Blocks, Dependencies and References for a mod in ModBuddy

Because a referenced mod does not need to be enabled first, there is a very nasty bug when it comes to the VFS

The referenced mod is supposed to load first. The database (xml/sql) updates and also any AddIns do indeed execute first, BUT the VFS is still updated in the order the mods are enabled

So if mod A references mod B, but mod A is enabled before Mod B, while the database will be updated in the order B then A, and also addins execute in the order B then A, the VFS will update in the order A then B, which is almost certainly not what is wanted :cry:
