[2021] Mods - Just to ask

Yeah, they consider it. Have implemented some things that were in mods, and have even hired a couple of modders.

But something else to consider is the developers vision on how they want gameplay to be. Inventory management is one of the challenges. Also note that a lot of the "super stacking" mods tend to end up breaking data stored in your save, and run a real risk of making your game unplayable. Balance is not the only reason for some limitations.
