So like an idiot I installed weaponcore 2.5 to do some testing in a private offline save, only to find that it deletes literally every non-WC weapon already placed in the world for no discernible reason. Funnily enough I didn't want it to do that so I removed both WC and the weapon pack that apparently needed it from the modlist, but after reloading the game it still acts as if WC is active and starts deleting non-WC weapons, even when reverting to a pre-WC save.

That would have been annoying enough if it weren't for the fact that after I deleted that world and started a completely new one with only the non-WC mods, the second that I spawned in one of my blueprint ships I got that infuriating pop-up that says the weapons are incompatible with weaponcore and will be deleted.

Weaponcore 2.5 is not in my modlist. It's not in my subscriptions section in-game or in my subscribed items list in the workshop. The same is all true of the weapon pack that caused this whole thing, which listed it as a hard requirement. They're both gone and none of the other mods I have installed use WC or have ever caused this kind of trouble, so why the ♥♥♥♥ is it still active? And how the ♥♥♥♥ is it installing itself into other saves?

If anyone has any ideas about what could have caused this, please tell me, because I'm sensing a complete reinstall in my near future and the internet here is powered by a hamster in a wheel -_-
