			==Page obsolete==
			The mod compatibility page was reaching the max complexity the wiki could handle. It was just under the max post-expand include size, most edits to the page were timing out, and editing it was enough to slow down the entire wiki server. Unfortunately, keeping the table on the wiki was no longer sustainable.

			So the wiki page has now been superseded by the {{github\|Pathoschild/SmapiCompatibilityList#readme\|mod compatibility repo}}. This also...
			* migrates the data to JSON, which makes it much easier to automate updates or use the data in various tools;
			* combines all the data in one place (e.g. data overrides alongside their mod data);
			* adds a validated JSON schema to keep the data consistent and valid;
			* adds field documentation and auto-complete directly in the text editor;
			* and adds an open-source license for newer contributions to the data.

			Feel free to submit edits to the repo if needed! Changes to the repo will automatically update the [https://smapi.io/mods public mod compatibility list], just like edits to the wiki page previously did. —<small>[[User:Pathoschild\|Pathoschild]] ([[User talk:Pathoschild\|talk]]) 07:09, 18 November 2024 (UTC)</small>

			I see, follow-up question. What if a modding tools, say a core mod, breaks? Do I mark only the mod that is a requirements or all the mods that are affected?
