This mod grants you a new way to inject your menus to the workshop, with wich players will be able to show and hidden your custom menu in-game. All without loosing the items they’ve build, with just one switch activation. It also lets them create agroupations of switches controled by just one simple switch.
The aim of this mod is to let modders make their work interactive, so the player can choose wether see or not a bunch of menus on the workshop.
With this feature, the load time of the workshop would decrease and the navigation throught the menu would be much more comfortable, having there just the items one wants to build at that moment.
How it Works:
By installing this, a new switchbox will appear under the ‘SPECIAL’ category. All switchboxes made using this mod will be placed under the same category unless the author says it doens’t, and you will be able to control that category with mine. This one will not need power to work.
Once you have this, you’ll need the mods using this. Since is kind of new, there are not mods out there using it, but I’m providing a patch for Homemaker to be able to work with it. You can give it a try, see if you like it, and if so request me or the original author to port any workshop mod to this method. Once the mods are patched, you’ll to select which mods you want to show on the workshop or not without loosing what you’ve build with them.
