In this case, it seems you would save a lot of trouble by just:
- Double click Path.txt
- Type in the mod name
- Press save
- Run RTC
Well, I said it does seem that way at first. But with shortcuts and a few times of doing it it's quite convenient and I'd say quicker then doing it manually. I am a very mouse oriented person. If I have a choice between doing something with a clicks or with typing I choose the clicks every time.

Or, if you really want to use the modpicker, how about adding a checkbox to the modpicker so that it runs RTC instead of SE4?
I guess that would eliminate having to click "Quit game". Not sure what other purpose it would serve though.

What about getting old Fuerte's PBEM helper to work with PBW.
I konw this was in the to-do list but it doesn't seem to be a priority anymore.

Geo's right, it only seems complicated in print. Once you're in the habit of doing it it's like anything else you do repeatedly, you do it without thinking!

Truth be told, I do the whole path.txt thing with almost all mousing too.

I've got all the mods I use listed above the *begin* line, and just highlight, CTRL-C, highlight CTRL-V then close and save.

or you could just type it out on the line. it works, especially if you shorten those folder names. takes ten seconds, maybe.
