The mod crashed on Linux during Initialize() at Harmony.PatchAll(): DllNotFoundException: Unable to load shared library '/tmp/mm-exhelper.so.*' ... undefined symbol: _Unwind_RaiseException Harmony's runtime detours go through MonoMod's native helper, which needs the stack-unwinding routines from libgcc_s. The Godot/.NET host doesn't load libgcc_s with global symbol visibility, so the helper can't resolve the symbol and PatchAll() throws — the save-path patches never apply and the game keeps using the separate modded/ profile directory (issue luojiesi#1). Fix: before patching, dlopen("libgcc_s.so.1", RTLD_NOW | RTLD_GLOBAL) via libdl.so.2 on Linux only (no-op on Windows/macOS). This makes the unwind symbol globally available to the helper. Self-contained, so it works regardless of mod load order and needs no Steam launch-option workaround. Also: - csproj: detect the host OS and reference the correct game data dir (data_sts2_linuxbsd_x86_64 on Linux, macos on macOS) instead of the hardcoded Windows path with backslashes; STS2GameDir still overridable. - manifest: has_pck = false (pure code mod, ships no Godot resources), which removes a spurious "no PCK found" error on load. Verified on STS2 v0.107.0 / Linux: mod initializes with no exception and the profile path becomes user://steam/<id>/profile1 (no "modded/" segment).

Harmony's runtime detours go through MonoMod's native helper, which needs the stack-unwinding routines from libgcc_s. The Godot/.NET host doesn't load libgcc_s with global symbol visibility, so the helper can't resolve the symbol and PatchAll() throws — the save-path patches never apply and the game keeps using the separate modded/ profile directory (issue #1).
