Profile Changelogs (Text)

When creating a modpack, it would be nice to have an auto-generated changelog generated between each run of the game (stored & editable locally, viewable in client). Initial run would generate an initial startup that shows the loader, its version, and a list of all mods/resourcepacks/worlds/etc that were installed through the launcher.

Then, if anything is added, updated, or removed before the next press of the "Play" button, it would have a new section added to the top of the changelog.

This could help newer pack-makers, or people who don't know how to read a crash log, to quickly determine what they may need to fix. A mockup:

[Profile Name, Run 2]

  • *Updated [Modloader] from [Old version] to [New version]

  • [Modloader, version]

    • Mods:

      • *Reverted "Antique Atlas"

      • -Removed "Iron Chests"

    • Resource Packs:

      • +Added "Fresh Animations"


[Profile Name, Run 1]

    • [Modloader, version]

      • Mods:

        • -Removed "Herobrine why does he keep coming ba-"
