@Red-Shanked Douc

This is because of the (TheWorkshop.AcceptItemFunctionToolbelt) fuction in the workshop mod Inside the lua/server/TW.lua

You could edit this code to add more Category by adding more

=

local category = scriptItem:getDisplayCategory()
if category == "Tool" or category == "ToolWeapon"
or category == "ToolCarpentry"
or category == "ToolCleaning"
or category == "ToolElectrical"
or category == "ToolFarming"
or category == "ToolMechanics"
or category == "ToolMedical"
or category == "ToolMetalworking"
or category == "ToolSurvival"
or category == "ToolTailoring"
then

=

-- Move alternative medical categories back into medical
elseif item:getDisplayCategory() == "Surgery" or item:getDisplayCategory() == "FirstAid" then
category = "Medical";

Should be

category = "Med";

This is to fix IGUI_ItemCat_Medical showing for some items.

Newest update? You mean 41.78.16 which was released on 12 Dec, 2022?

Not working in newest update

Hello, author. If I want to provide localized translations, how should I contact you?

By changing tools to be in specific categories rather than just tools, it removes the ability to put them in the tool belt from The Workshop mod

I don't know how this would be done but it would be great if ammo was at the top with weapons on the list when looting with 'proximity inventory' so I wouldn't have to scroll all the way down on massive piles of bodies repeatedly.

Finally! There had been a serious need for an up-to-date sorting mod for a while.

By any chance, did you miss categorizing the pipe wrench? Seems like it's the only tool i have that just says "Tool" with no subcategories.

i need chinese please! my hero!

@thecarvalhogamer only English, if you want to help translate the categories to other languages I can implement it!

@Aush ah, it's just a translation thing. I'll see if I can fix it soon.

@Jaxx - pshoooo ah yes, I use that one myself too so will give it some extra attention in the next update :)

How many languages ​​does mod have?

@Kechna In place of the category, ' IGUI_ItemCat_Medical ' is displayed

any chance you could look at Easy Packing as a better sorting compat mod? :') a ton of its items are incorrectly categorized even taking into account base categories, like 10x Pack of Batteries being Crafting instead of Crafting - Electronics etc.

@Shimo @twitch.tv/thefaith818 it _should_ be compatible with anything better sorting is compatible with, I'm doing pretty much the same thing as that mod is already doing, just with more granular categories and some different logic for automatic categorization.

@Aush what do you mean by broken categories?

@Soul G it logs which items have their categories changed, with the old and the new category, and whether it was done automatically or by a manual mapping.

is this compatible with Loot Is First - Sorting

Is it compatible with Better Sorting - Patch Smorgasbord?

The mod seems to have an incompatibility with the More Food Pack mod [41.78+/MP] , more specifically with the medicines, the categories are broken.

What does verbose option do, by the way?

Kechna, you're the Curry hero we didn't know we needed. Thanks for releasing your work to the masses.

@Jaxx - pshoooo that is definitely something this covers :)

if you tell me it fixes Sapph's Curry Powder to be fixed to show as Cooking/Seasoning, i will be instantly sold

@Brekkik, yup, haven't even gotten to fixing the display name yet. Will do next update :)

Sorry, made this for myself initially and did not expect anyone to be interested (yet). In short, it extends on what Better Sorting does, but with more granular categories, and categorizations i consider incorrect or annoying "fixed". With specific mod support focused on mods I use with my friends, like Lifestyle, Sapph's Cooking, all kinds of crafting additions, and many others.

In case you don't know how BS works under the hood: It attempts to auto-categorize items based on their properties, and includes many, many manual category overrides for base items and those of a ton of popular mods.

As for the more granular categories, some examples are: Condiments, spices, servings (so finished meals), tools per relevant skill, liquid containers, perishable beverages, money and more.



There are still a bunch of things that aren't categorized correctly, I will write more and put out more updates soon. I'm going on vacation next week, though, so I hope I can find some time before then.

Would be nice more detail of what the categories you are adding are. Also what about mod compatibility ? Mods that added compatibility to better sorting will not take on these changes ?

Disregard my prior post. I finally managed to find it. If anyone else is having trouble with it, it's listed in the mod manager as CABetterSortingExpanded

Can you add a more detailed description and in-game screenshot comparison? To see what categories are added to the mod

Attempted to try your mod out since I'm always looking for expansions to Better Sorting, but the mod doesn't appear in the mod manager, so I'm unable to activate it.
