 ### Utilities
 
-* `minetest.get_current_modname()`: returns a string
+* `minetest.get_current_modname()`: returns the currently loading mod's name, when we are loading a mod
 * `minetest.get_modpath(modname)`: returns e.g. `"/home/user/.minetest/usermods/modname"`
     * Useful for loading additional `.lua` modules or static data from mod
 * `minetest.get_modnames()`: returns a list of installed mods
