Important note regarding DLC plug-in loading, courtesy of Avrie:

"This is a bit of a premature public service announcement For people currently using Mo2 to mod Starfield... I'm not sure if it affects Vortex the same way, more to follow

If you're finding the Terran Armada DLC and ship blueprints deselected and at the bottom of the plugins along with the updated unofficial patch, this is not an MO2 issue.

The game is force loading the plugins.txt at launch, and unloading them again on exit. Because the patch lists these as required masters, when the plugins are unloaded, so is the patch. Silarn is working on an update to allow the UI to 'fake' the locations so it doesn't mess up the rest of your load order or dependencies like the patch, but he's also dealing with a QT update that has issues, and he needs to update all of those references as well, it's going to take a little bit.

Here's the thing, The DLC works fine. The game forces the load, it's only on game exit that the plugins get unloaded, so the work around is very simple.

Fix your LO
Make sure all the plugins are enabled
Then make a backup (The button is on top of the left pane, in the right corner next to active)
Play normally.

when you exit the game, restore the backup (button to the left of backup button)

That way it's ready for you next time, and you won't forget. I'll keep us in the loop when Silarn finishes the updates, but for now, use the backup and restore feature. I'll have to check with the Vortex team"
