Reloading Contexts on Mod Load

[Exsolutus]

I've been digging through the FrontEnd UI files. What I've found is that everything up to AdvancedSettings is loaded prior to loading mods. This means a mod which attempts to make changes to any of the FrontEnd UI other than AdvancedSettings (and maybe a few other select items) will not have any effect.

So I was wondering if there was any way for a script to run immediately on mod load, and then force the context tree to reload. Is this possible? If so, a quick overview of the method is appreciated. If not, are there any similar alternatives to modding FrontEnd UI?

Thanks, guys

As far as I know that's not possible as a mod, but FrontEnd UI modding can be done as Fake DLC.
Of course as such it cannot easily be shared via Steam Workshop.

That's too bad. Honestly, I'm a bit obsessed with ease of use, so I want to avoid the fake DLC method as much as possible. I feel more complicated methods like that tend to reduce the number of players actually modding their game. I'll keep exploring anyway.

True, although I would guess that people interested in front-end UI modding would most likely be mostly "power users" anyway, so maybe it does not make that much of a difference.
