OpenRA

Hi everyone, I’m playing OpenRA and I often test small custom mods (unit stats and a few rule changes). Is there any way for replays to automatically store the mod or rules that were used in that match?

I want to share my replays with friends, but if they don’t have the exact same mod installed, the replay either breaks or doesn’t play correctly. I’m wondering if there’s a built-in feature for this, or maybe a recommended workaround that players use.

That wouldn't be feasable. It would bloat the user files too much, including all files in a replay is not free. It would also still not work with different engine versions or modifications.
