Sweep By Type

Streamline Your Cleanup with Sweep By Type for Oxygen Not Included

Managing your duplicants’ cleanup tasks in Oxygen Not Included can quickly become a chaotic endeavor. As your asteroid base expands, so does the variety of discarded items, cluttering your precious floor space and hindering efficiency. Introducing the Sweep By Type mod, a powerful enhancement designed to bring order to the chaos and give you granular control over your sweepers.

Take Command of Your Debris

Tired of sweepers indiscriminately hauling every stray item across your base? The Sweep By Type mod revolutionizes the built-in sweep tool by adding a sophisticated filtering system. No longer will you need to micromanage individual items or disable sweepers entirely. Instead, you can precisely dictate what gets swept and what remains untouched.

Key Features for Enhanced Management

This mod empowers you with a suite of features to optimize your base’s tidiness:

• Precise Item Selection: A dedicated type selection window allows you to choose exactly which item categories your sweepers should prioritize. This includes a wide range of materials, from volatile liquid bottles and pressurized gas canisters to valuable artifacts and essential equipment.
• Flexible Filtering: Easily toggle between sweeping all item types with a single checkbox, or deselect everything to focus on specific materials. This offers unparalleled flexibility in managing different cleanup zones or specific material requirements.
• Category-Based Sweeping: Select or deselect entire categories of materials at once. This is incredibly useful for large-scale cleanup operations, allowing you to quickly target all consumables, all decor items, or any other defined group.
• Customizable Presets: Save your frequently used item type configurations into multiple preset slots. This means you can quickly activate specific cleanup protocols for different stages of your colony’s development or for specialized tasks without having to reconfigure your filters every time.
• Persistent Settings: Your sweep presets are automatically saved with your game’s progress. This ensures that your meticulously crafted cleanup rules are always available, and the mod can be safely removed or updated without jeopardizing your save file.

Performance Options

For those managing performance on less powerful systems, the Sweep By Type mod offers an option to disable material icons within the filtering menu. This simple toggle can help reduce loading times and improve overall game responsiveness by preventing these visual elements from being rendered.

By integrating the Sweep By Type mod into your Oxygen Not Included experience, you’ll unlock a new level of control over your colony’s cleanliness and operational efficiency.
