I don't think what you want is possible, with the way 1.13 modding works. There's no central place where all mods are stored and updated.
The closest thing for those busy people who want to try various mods without understanding how it works is probably my unofficial 7609 modpack.
All you need to do is extract it somewhere and add missing SLF files to data folder (or unpack it over existing clear vanilla ja2 folder, but remember to never run vanilla ja2.exe in 1.13 folder).
For the game to work with win10, using registry patch should be enough (open with notepad, change path to your ja2.exe, run .reg file, don't forget that you need to use '\\' instead of '\'), or copy supplied DLLs into game folder as an alternate way to run ja2.exe on modern systems.
In my modpack, all common user settings are stored in Data-User, so you can set some options and they will be used in all mods. By default there are some options provided for balance and convenience.

My modpack works only with stable 7609 (so no modern Aimnas, though it's possible to play aimnas maps on 7609). It should be possible to make similar modpack for unstable releases, but there are very few mods that will work with it (Aimnas, AFS/UC, Wildfire 6.07 and maybe simple modpacks like NO maps), and I'm personally not interested in it.
There are also SCIs for Vengeance:Reloaded and Arulco Vacation mods that are easy to install (just unpack them over clean vanilla ja2).

Also, red text when you start the game usually is not something bad, it shows that some options are missing and default values are used instead, the game should still work well.
