I would reccomend that all mods that folks are using be examined and re-evaluated after the patch. Some may not be needed, some may work weirdly, some may break, some may be just fine. I avoid most mods in the first month or two of a game's release for this reason alone.

My biggest gipe is the Ether gaps which I've found a few and fixing of the Full Repair with Weapon Repair Kits Stacking bug

That is quite true, it's a bit too early to be using overhauls.

I just wish they would release the the blasted patch. If anything is more infuriating than having to wait for the patch to be finished, it's knowing that the finish patch is out there somewhere not being released.
