I love destroying my game with a ton of mods and seeing how far I can take games to go beyond how they are originally played but I think I hit the limit of Rimworld simply because there is too much to build. Can someone put something together to maybe make it 2-4 lines with a scroll bar to the side? or If they have another way to do it I'm opened to almost anything as long I don't have to remove the amazing mods their creators put together. I am deeply thankful for the game and for each and every mod. Thank you for any feedback or tips on how to overcome the issues.

Hi,
i need to say GEEESHHH !
If anything is working right without problems i like to see your modlist ! :-)

But i don't know a mod that can clear up the menu's.
And that would be a impossible task anyway. How the mod should know which benches they can put together from all these mods.
If you got some expierence with a texteditor you could manualy move some benches into a new menu.
But that require little bit knowledge.
You need first to create a new menu category then assign the benches to that category.
Take a look at Dub's Hygiene
/Defs/Designations/DesignationCategories.xml
and when you look at
/Defs/ThingDefs_Buildings/BuildingsA_Pipes.xml
you see the
Code Select
<designationCategory>HygieneMisc</designationCategory>
to assign the pipe to that category.

But i rather suggest, live with the chaos at the menu, after awhile you will find the stuff.

Thank you for the response. I have 0 modding experience except for early days of mine craft modding. I like the idea of what you said of trying to move everything individually into separate production tabs, but it does appear to be very time consuming because I have to open up each file individual and change their location. Because I still have an empty slot at the bottom (you can see in the picture) I think this idea should work out nicely. Ill post a picture if I got it working correctly by using this method.


Also here is the complete list of all the mods ;)
I use and what order I have them in. The pack isn't perfect and does have some issues. Just 2 days ago I lost my 200 day colony due to some corruption when loading the map. I think I'll just have to restart but it was very fun to play

Since you are already using RIMMSqol you can edit the architect menu.

Edit your workbenches under the building category in the mod menu and change the fields "Architect Category" and "Architect Category Dropdown". The category dropdown allows you to group buildings into a single button if they are in the same category and use the same dropdown(like colored lights).

In addition the mod changes it so you can group buildings that use materials into a dropdown. By clicking the dropdown multiple times you switch between selecting a building and selecting a material for the currently selected building.

Special buttons in the architect menues are configured using the architect category in the mod menu.

Wow. Im amazed at how well that worked. Took me 10 mins to move half of the junk to another tab just by changing something so simple. Thank you for this easy solution. Ill go thank the mod too after this. Im just amazed by how fast and easy this solution was to my issue. Now I dont have anymore limitations again except for ui constantly disappearing after some time. Thanks again, happy organ harvesting!

You can simply use the Dubs Mint Menu tab, which provides a scrollable window with buildings that you can build. It is activated by pressing a hotkey (you can see them in the keyboard settings). You can also make this tab visible through RIMMSqol, and instead of pressing hotkey, simply press a Mint Menu button.
