A really common error that costs new modders a lot of time is when they don't link an included rpk as a dependency in package manager. Modders see the file in the list of included files in package manager and assume things are good, but when they load up the game they don't see their mod working at all.

It would be good to see some sort of warning icon or message beside each apk/rpk that hasn't been linked as a dependency via Content > Packages or Content > Resource Packs. I do realize that it's noted in the modding guide, but with the amount of information in there it's easy to forget. I think this change would greatly benefit the onboarding of new modders to the community.
