Description

My internet's pretty slow and inconsistent. Because of that, when downloading big mods, I'm often not really sure whether there is any progress or not (especially when a mod has a large size because one specific file in the mod is big). It would be great if this rewrite included a more specifc download screen, like in HMM7, so that I can check the progress on individual files while the mod is downloading.

Thanks for your work on this awesome project, maintainers!

Research direction

Locate the download screen and the code that tracks mod and individual-file downloads, then read how progress is currently surfaced. Done means the download view reports progress for each file, including large files, in a way comparable to HMM7.
