Civilization – How to save information about selected mods

civilization-5mods

It's a problem one runs into when using more than a few mods in multitude of situations.

Let's say I play on two different computers regularly. The Steam Sync feature will take care of my saves, but I still have to remember which mods I selected for the particular game (because having selected not exactly the same exact mods will usually break saves).

Or let's say I just want to play several games on the same machine but each with different set of mods. I have to remember the exact set for each game (or write them down somewhere).

Is there a way to extract this info from some game file or is there maybe a mod that exports this somewhere in a convenient way?

I found a pretty straightforward solution. When you fire up the game menu there's a little, inconspicuous text in the bottom left saying "Mods".

Like this: enter image description here

Clicking it gives you a list of active mods. Now the only thing you have to do is making a screenshot like I did above (or probably at least two).
