Research direction

Start by reproducing the mod manager's failure to connect while the ficsit.app website is tested separately, with and without a VPN. Use the attached screenshot and compare the manager's behavior with the expected online mod listing. Done means the manager can access the service and discover new mods, not only already installed ones.

Description

What should I do if the mod manager can't connect to the network? It only sees already installed mods, but it can't find any new mods online. The ficsit.app website itself doesn't always open for me, but I run a VPN and everything works. The mod manager, however, doesn't work with or without a VPN.
