Keyz' Allow Utilities

Description
Keyz' Allow Utilities
A utility mod that adds various quality-of-life improvements for managing items and plants across your colony map. This mod focuses on enhancing selection, allow/forbid controls, and plant management features.

Note: this is not a fork of the original Allow Tools - it's a from scratch implementation with a focus on performance.
That said - Thanks to UnlimitedHugs for Allow Tools - the inspiration for this. It used to be one of the most used mods when I played :)

is that normal that cut/harvest grown and haul urgently has like 3 different arrows?

Never mind, tried it. It's a big no.

Does this work in 1.5 by any chance?

OK, thanks. I tried this mod out and I'm sorely missing the "Allow All" gizmo. I had put it into "Dubs Mint Menus" wheel menu for quick access, your mod lacks such a thing if I'm not blind.

@zzzombo - no, it's a from-scratch alternative, with a focus on performance.

I don't understand, is this "Allow Tool" fork?
Runzu 19 Aug @ 10:31am 
Hm, kill saitiety doesn't seem to be working at all now. I will investigate to see if there's a conflict.

Could you make it so the strip mine is based on the starting position rather than going from the absolute corner of the map?

Updates:

- All keybinds can be found and changed under Options => Controls => Modify, then scroll down to "Allow Utilities".
- All designators and gizmos can be toggled on and off in the settings.
