Solved How do I know which vars reference a specific other one?

It's hard to keep track of which dependencies are not needed anymore.

I have some .vars that I don't know if I still need them. I delete many scenes, looks, etc. But I don't usually delete their dependencies.

So, for example, I have this 'Creatorname.Skin.1.var'. How do I know which other scenes/looks still need it?

I have tried the var manager, but I didn't really like it. I don't understand how it works and it moves my files around in a way that makes me confused.

Only by searching the VARs meta.json for that specific dependency, or removing it, rescan packages, and see if the error log complains it's missed as a dependency of VARs x, y, z.
