Interesting Side effect of this is that the groups are changed in the storage menu. But it's honestly nice to break that up a bit too

[timber viper]

Ya i feel the same

[grizzled ledge]

Oh shit, this is actually quite good.
Would it be possible to separate all liquids in their own bar? Maybe below the water one? Like, having Water on top as of now, but then below we have badwater, extract and such (basically anything that can be stored in water tanks, have their own bar below the water one)

[timber viper]

Hmm that is nothing i will do but your free to look at this mod and can send a list of goods and goodgroups of you want to vreate your own

Have you considered some coloring?
Like it was suggested here (it's old so les relevant with more bars, but still it might make some sense) https://timberborn.featureupvote.com/suggestions/251891/improved-resource-sorting-and-categories-add-color-coded-icons-materials-types

[timber viper]

if i do it will probobly be a seperate mod byt ya that would help a lot

so you can opt in to what part you want and they should be fully standalone mods 🙂

after seeing the post i do like the idea and a mod will be created but may take a week or 2 (going on vacation)

[quiet niche]

I thought as an option for this one, but yeah maybe separate one would be better. Anyway just dropped an idea.

[quiet niche]

I think you meant "partly" in the upvote comment

and a new mod will be created to change the colors of items:
Yellow = Food and food-related products.
Green = Wood-based industrial products.
Cool-Gray = Metal industrial products.
Red = Dynamite.
Light Blue = Water (District distr.)
I suggest expand red on badwater
Genereally it might be useful to see raw and produced good in one color \ tint
Not sure if it would work with foods (e.g. different shades of green for each pair of raw-processed food)

[timber viper]

maybe also extract

[quiet niche]

Yes, thought about extract but haven't made my mind about it so didn't mention

Probably better to run a few experimebts

[timber viper]

ya

to bad that i currently working on a map (using mapper from you Gin ) and i go out with a boat in a few days

[kindred reef]

Is it possible to have this mod reorder like the food so the raw vs cooked foods match in order so easier to compare?

Also moving coffee to the cooked food

[timber viper]

to change sort order ether i need to edit the name of stuff or that would req code ether way its not part of this mod

but moving coffee to "processed food" is possible
