Grouped Resources
Streamline Your Duplicant Management with Grouped Resources
Managing the ever-growing list of essential resources in Oxygen Not Included can become a daunting task. As your asteroid base expands, so does the number of items you need to keep track of, often leading to a cluttered and inefficient interface. The Grouped Resources mod introduces a sophisticated organization system to the pinned resources window, bringing clarity and speed to your resource management.
Effortless Resource Identification
This mod revamps the pinned resources display by implementing a pre-MergeDown style grouping system. Similar to how you might organize items in your own life, resources are now neatly categorized under collapsible headers. This visual separation makes it significantly easier to scan and locate the specific materials your Duplicants require, reducing the time spent searching and maximizing operational efficiency.
Enhanced Compactness and Visibility
One of the primary benefits of Grouped Resources is its ability to display more pinned items within a more compact space. The collapsing nature of the category headers means you can hide groups of resources you aren’t currently focused on, freeing up valuable screen real estate. Furthermore, each resource entry is enhanced with a semi-transparent background, improving text legibility against various in-game backgrounds and ensuring that vital information remains clear and accessible.
Key Features of Grouped Resources:
- Collapsible Categories: Organize pinned resources under distinct, collapsible group headers.
- Streamlined Sorting: Resources are ordered logically by group name, then by individual resource name for quick access.
- Compact Display: Fit more essential resources into your pinned interface without sacrificing clarity.
- Improved Readability: Semi-transparent backgrounds enhance text legibility for all pinned items.
- Persistent State: Category collapse/expand states are now tracked across different asteroids and saved with your game.
Customizable Organization
The Grouped Resources mod offers a degree of customization to tailor the experience to your specific preferences. You have the option to enable or disable the category headers entirely, while still retaining the grouped sorting and coloring. Additionally, you can fine-tune the colors and alpha blending of the elements to achieve optimal visibility and aesthetic appeal for your interface. By bringing order to your resource management, this mod empowers you to focus on the more critical aspects of maintaining your thriving asteroid colony.
