vaults -> mod vault -> UI mod manager

enable mods in that manager and they always be active unless you manually turn them off in lobby before playing
but next launch they will be enabled again

thanks guys. no zlo that doesn't work... it doesnt matter which of the three ways I do it (faf client, game lobby, game extras menu) ... the mods will be active for a little while but at some point the game.prefs file gets overwritten with no active mods.

@Mak, it is every ui mod I have but for example, Supreme Economy

log 1 - open faf, enable mod in mod vault, close mod window, reopen mod window (its not active), enable it again and close window. close faf.

log 2 - open faf, enable mod in mod vault, close mod window. game.prefs has mod. start custom game (get to game lobby but dont launch it). mod is missing from game.prefs now. close game and faf.

thanks sheeo :)
