I understand that Civ 5 was never meant to have mods enabled in Multiplayer by default.

However I see that over the years, people came up with different ways of getting mods into Multiplayer regardless, mostly via the use of external programs such as mod managers.

While that certainly is a solution, I was wondering whether there was an already-established method of manually installing the mod files into your game?

From what I can gather, Civ 5 stores it's mod files in My "Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\MODS\" (for Windows OS at least).
In each mod file, there appear to be Lua and XML files detailing the contents of the mods.

From what I can also gather, Civ 5 stores it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DLC content in "steamapps\common\Sid Meier's Civilization V\Assets\DLC\".
Each DLC appears to have it's own folder.

I was wondering whether someone found a way of integrating the user-made mods from the Workshop into these ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DLC files, so the game automatically runs them at startup and allows them to be used in Multiplayer as if they were ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DLC.

Thanks for reading my posting, any guidance is appreciated.
