Mod Load Order Sorter [b42]

Description
Mod version for build 41 of Project Zomboid

This mod changes the logic of the automatic sorting of mods added in build 42 of ProjectZomboid.
Now the automatic sorting supports sorting rules, as well as highlights all found violations of the mod loading order.

How to use:
All you need to do is enable this mod and apply the changes. Then activate all the mods you want, go to the mod load order and click the "Sort" button at the bottom of the screen. Apply the changes.
Done!
If necessary, you can manually change the mod load order or set your own rules using the sorting rules editor.

Warning:
Any change in the order of loading mods in the middle of the game can lead to loss of the current save. Do so at your own risk.

Features:
  • Automatic sorting:
    The list of Active mods is pre-sorted alphabetically and also grouped in the following order:
    1. Framework/API/Tweak mods,
    2. Resources/Textures,
    3. Maps/Locations,
    4. Vechicles,
    5. Code-only mods,
    6. Clothing,
    7. Interface,
    8. Other mods,
    9. Localization
    Subsequent application of the topological sorting algorithm can detect and correct incorrect order of mods according to the requirements of each mod.
  • Support for Sorting Rules. Sorting Rules Editor
  • Highlighting mods with detected violations
  • Search by mod name or mod ID
  • Support for multiple file selection to manually edit the order of loading mods.
  • When running the game in debug mode, additional information about the mod on which the mouse cursor is hovered will be displayed.

Disclamer
This mod is not a cure for all conflicts in the order of loading mods. Some conflicts can only be resolved manually.

Problems with Neat_Building.
Try disabling it and sorting the mod order using my mod. I hope this solves your problems.

Yes, I needed the mod order from the clipboard. Thank you.

I added your mod preset to my game, activated it, and clicked the mod sorting button. As a result, all the mods were sorted by category in the order specified in my mod's description. So, I couldn't reproduce what you were saying about the mods being sorted in the wrong order.

However, after I applied the changes and the mods from your preset were activated, the game returned 168 errors and stopped launching altogether. This isn't difficult to fix (in the "default.txt" file located at "C:\Users\<username>\Zomboid\mods", you need to delete the contents of the "mods" list), but the problem is clearly not with my mod.

Apparently, there's some critical conflict between some mods that isn't being caught by the settings and sorting rules specified by the authors of the conflicting mods.

And the clipboard of the mod preset is in the discussions session. Sorry, I've misunderstood

Hey, what's up
I've done the list separating the mods in the colors they appear in mod menu, it's in the description of the collection now, I hope you can find the problem. Thank you for the attention and the help so far.

It's a good idea to create a collection so I can reproduce your issue, but could you also add your enabled mods to the collection description?
(Create a new mod preset in the mod menu and share it.)

hello, how you doing?
so, sadly my problem persists, it's not sorting right. i've also checked "Bug reports" but coudn't find a solution, and in my "sorting rules" txt file and in it's two backups, there's nothing, i don't know if it's meant to be like this.
your mod was doing the hard work for me, cause i'm not the codes guy, but i like lots of mods. i'm blind here, can't even play my saves right now

https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3566274705

this is the list of every mod i use. if it won't trouble you, check it out and let me know if there's some mod that may be uncompatible with yours, please. sorry again, and thanks

If the versions match, try checking the integrity of the game files using the appropriate option in Steam.

@Jasongamer1379
please make sure you are subscribing to the correct version of the mod.
in the main menu of the game at the bottom is written the version of the game.
This version of the mod is only for version b42
for version 41 of the game use the mod of the corresponding version https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3180893708

The mod does not appear in the mod list.
REfRigERatoR  [author] Oct 1 @ 1:41pm 
ATTENTION!!! New update!
1.0.13:
The “tweaks” category has moved to first place in the category sorting order.

Please let me know if this breaks anything.
And remember: updating the mod load order in a midsave can result in lost saves. Do this at your own risk.
