Key Features to Enhance Your Gameplay:

• Interactive Key Options: Right-clicking on any key reveals crucial options like ‘View on Map,’ ‘Show Direction,’ ‘Rename,’ and ‘Favorite.’ This allows for immediate identification and tracking of your most important keys. You can even favorite your Key Ring to prevent accidental loss.
• Ground Key Detection: Keys dropped on the ground can often be difficult to spot. This mod adds subtle text labels above keys lying around, ensuring you don’t miss vital finds.

• Comprehensive Map UI: The mod introduces a dedicated key management window directly within your map interface. This window is resizable, minimizable, and offers advanced features like color-coded categories, direct map panning to key locations, and the ability to pin favorite keys. You can also group duplicate keys and set primary keys for ease of use.
