## State of modpackchecker_servers table

```
a0efbfe8 | curseforge | up_to_date | current=  | latest=FTB StoneBlock 4 1.10.0

22 records created ✅ — detection working.

## Two Issues

**1. `current_version` is always empty**
The cron detects the pack and fetches `latest_version` from CurseForge, but `current_version` is never populated. Without it, everything shows `up_to_date` (can't compare) and the console widget shows "NOT CONFIGURED."

Where should `current_version` come from?
- Egg variable `MODPACK_CURRENT_VERSION`? (requires egg change — not ideal)
- A file on the server like `version.json` or `instance.json`?
- The `modpack_installations` table — does it have a version column?

**2. Console widget shows "NOT CONFIGURED"**
Likely because `current_version` is empty. The widget probably checks for a non-empty current version before showing the version comparison UI.

Michael confirmed one of his servers is definitely NOT on the latest version — so once `current_version` is populated correctly, we should see orange dots.
