Even without the reorderer, this mod is perfect for the color changing and limit change alone.

I created a fork for the re-ordering issue and have submitted a pull request. I uploaded my fork at: https://gtm.you1.cn/sharedfiles/filedetails/?edit=true&id=3309976104

very useful

The reordering is specifically why I came here. Sigh.

Any chances of having the reorder button fixed? cause it would make this mod far better for me :)

I'm using this mod on a RimWorld Together, Dedicated 24/7, Multiplayer Public Server I host. Great addition for the Vanilla+ Lite feel I'm going for, awesome job. Working as intended, Server info. if interested: {LINK REMOVED} Thank You.

Please fix the reordering button not working, it's a really useful feature

@Rhaevan This isn't the place for politics. Not everyone feels as you do even if it is felt that you are in the clear moral right. Many people don't want to think about the real world or have direct ties to the holy land. There has always been bias's of the region and issues of war, keep it out of gaming for the sake of everyone that is impacted by it.

I've had an issue with this, there seems to be no "expand" or "shrink" options in the area tab when I use it, thus making area's much harder to set up and use. Any reason why this might be the case? Unsure if its an incompatibility with UINotIncluded or something.

Odd little error Dialog_ColourPicker on startup. I've put it in a pastebin, hope this helps!

I didn't expect an update for this honestly, Thank you so much Fluffy

@all : Oh, and I want to point out that the little time I have for RimWorld I am spending on updating mods. Testing is usually limited to making sure there are no errors, and testing the functionality on a small test colony. I don't have time to do playtests with mature colonies, so it's very likely I'll miss subtle bugs, or changes made with the 1.5 update and Anomaly expansion.

I rely on you folks to let me know if something's wrong. So, if when you notice anything that's not working, missing, or should work differently with the new updates, please do let me know!
Fluffy  [author] 15 Mar @ 10:30am 
@all: 1.5 update is live, it should work and fix most of the issues reported for 1.4, particularly any issues around the colour picker window (it's a separate module, which I apparently forgot to update the previous time around... Sorry!).

I will take a closer look at why reordering isn't working anymore in the future, but I hope you can understand that with other mods to update, this isn't a priority for me right now.

@LoopKat: thanks for the feedback :)

@Catalyst888: if the issue is areas not showing up in other interfaces, that's unlikely to be related to this mod. Literally all this mod does is make a single function "CheckNewAreaAllowed" always return true. The stuff with recolouring is just visual, and reordering hasn't worked in a while to begin with, so can't have any effect :D.
Nayko93 5 Mar @ 10:21am 
Can we have a update please ? still can't reorder the area in the list and the confirmation button for changing color is still gone..

Also, do you think you could add the color picker to the stock piles too please ? there is already a mod doing this, "ReColor Stockpile & Growing Zones" but not a lot of people know it exist, and the color picker is pretty ugly and unintuitive, BUT it have the ability to save custom color presets, which is soooooo useful
LoopKat 7 Feb @ 11:16pm 
To anyone reading all the other comments about this mod being broken on 1.4:

I can confirm that drag re-ordering for zones is non-functional, however the color picker IS still (mostly) functional. The caveat is that the color picker pop-up window has no confirmation/exit buttons (which I assume is the main problem), but pressing Enter after selecting your color will both confirm the new color and close the color picker window (pressing Esc just closes the window without confirming the new color)

It's worth noting that I don't have any other mods that affect/modify Area zones though, so if you're trying to use this in conjunction with another mod that does, then your results may vary (as-per other comments). I am using [KV] ReColor Stockpile & Growing Zones, but it doesn't touch Area zones, so there's no conflict/misbehavior

Just wanted to share this because I avoided this mod for a while due to the comments, but it turns out it functions well enough for my needs
Catalyst888 5 Dec, 2023 @ 9:56am 
I'm having an issue where i installed this mod and now half the zones are not showing up (like, home is only on the right side of the screen) or if it as the whole screen, parts of it are just gone. When you try to create more, it doesn't show up like the game knows its there, but the color is gone. Even worse, deep drill deposit's green boxes are gone. The deposit is still there, and when i hover my mouse over it, it shows me what it is, but the green boxes are gone. Except, i see a few deep drill boxes on the left side of the map that take on a shade of the area i am trying to expand or remove. I then uninstalled the mod it and even loaded an older save and it's still messed up. I even tried to find replacement mods instead to see if it could fix it, but no luck. Has this happened to anyone else? How can i fix?
Gary_Bacongrease 7 Nov, 2023 @ 10:34am 
How do you move the areas up and down? For some reason I can't seem to do this by just clicking them. Has anyone figured this out?
SkylineOdeum 10 Aug, 2023 @ 7:37pm 
Ooo,and alternative? That's good to know!
Frank 25 May, 2023 @ 2:03pm 
TD Enhancement Pack mod is a great alternative, plus it has more features
Shazzamon 22 Apr, 2023 @ 11:51pm 
While the lack of re-ordering is a little annoying, I'm thankful this even exists! It allowed me to set up my Vanilla Genetics Expanded zoo without issue. I'd be awful sad if this was ever outright abandoned.

Rip organization and OCD
VolatileGlitchAviator 8 Mar, 2023 @ 11:28am 
If you read down below you would read it no longer works.
SrrrAing 7 Mar, 2023 @ 4:45pm 
Am I the only one who can't seem to be able to drag around and reorder areas in the menu, as shown in the gif above?
SimplePhysics 23 Feb, 2023 @ 8:50am 
Just checking in to see if there's any progress being made to the area re-ordering code; hasn't been functional since 1.4 dropped.
Leon The Hero 31 Jan, 2023 @ 7:37am 
TO FIX THE COLOR PICKER PROBLEMS

Replace this mod's 0ColourPicker.dll with the 0ColourPicker_1.4.dll from Faction Customizer (and make sure to rename it too)
Bo0Mz 22 Jan, 2023 @ 10:44am 
you are amazing fluffy :steamhappy:
g-fourteen 27 Dec, 2022 @ 5:43am 
press Enter to "ok" color selection
ReneeEclipse 17 Dec, 2022 @ 4:58pm 
The color picker is broken, and it's affecting other mods that use the color picker, such as Faction Customizer, when used alongside Area Unlocker. Here's a log with the error spam that occurs when I try to use the color picker (with only Harmony, Core, Royalty, Ideology, Biotech, Hugslib and Area Unlocker active):

https://gist.github.com/e8018f04fa761e1f147a954e83364155

Mod Manager's color picker is also broken, same problem as far as I can tell.
Stellar Harbour 11 Dec, 2022 @ 4:01am 
Can you make funtion to move areas?
GhostLiner 2 Dec, 2022 @ 3:23am 
Hello.

This in combination with Faction Customizer makes their color picker not work. Removing this mod makes their mod's one work so IDK what's going on here. Anyway since it's already been reported, support to you.
Willzard, the binder of books 29 Nov, 2022 @ 6:49am 
you have to much time my guy
Hu Flung Dung 5 Nov, 2022 @ 12:56pm 
"color picker/customization do not work" Might not be an issue with this mod because the same thing is happening with Faction Customizer. There is no way to "ok" the color selection on both mods now.
Fathom 4 Nov, 2022 @ 3:11pm 
Currently this mod is missing some of the listed functionality. The drag and drop feature and the color picker/customization do not work. The zones can be deleted and remade in hopes of getting the preferred color. The limit removal on zones does appear to be working as intended however.

Per the author's instructions, I opened a bug report on GitHub. [github.com]

@fluffy I love all of your mods and I really appreciate your contributions to the community. Sorry you have to deal with all the negativity in the comment sections of your mods. Please take your time with the updates.

okay,thx!:cozybethesda:
Thor 26 Oct, 2022 @ 12:58pm 
Thanks for letting us know, Fluffy! I might actually consider removing Error Checker from my load order then.
Fluffy  [author] 26 Oct, 2022 @ 12:41pm 
@倒霉蛋, Raizo; please don't report 'bugs' from the Error Checker Mod. It's giving false positives all over the place. I'm not sure what it's doing and how, but of the 6 reports I've seen so far, not a single one was an actual issue.

Now if you're actually experiencing an issue yourself, please do report - and feel free to add extra info from the error checker mod, it might be helpful. On it's own, it just doesn't seem reliable.
Fluffy  [author] 26 Oct, 2022 @ 12:38pm 
@Raizo; You're not going mad, the drag and drop functionality in the game changed for 1.4, and I couldn't figure it out during my initial update rounds. I figured it's not a core feature, so it'd be better to just drop it and get an update out, then try to patch it back in later.

I should have made a note of that though, sorry!
Thor 26 Oct, 2022 @ 11:53am 
I want to check in with other people. Am I the only one who can't seem to be able to drag around and reorder areas in the menu, as shown in the gif above?

Error in Area Unlocker, assembly name: 0ColourPicker, method: Dialog_ColourPicker:DrawButtons, exception: System.MissingMethodException: bool Verse.Widgets.ButtonText(UnityEngine.Rect,string,bool,bool,bool)

Hi Fluffy! I hope you're doing good!

I deided to install Mod Error Checker and it came back with this at line 1365
I haven't personally anything wrong yet, but I hope this is useful.

I have more information about the issue reported by fireglow. An exception appears in the log after clicking on the "Change area color" button. The following HugsLib log also includes an extra error which is detected by "Mod Error Checker".

I'm on 1.4 and don't see the buttons for the color manager anymore, can't set a color.
SimplePhysics 10 Sep, 2022 @ 8:41pm 
I am wondering, would it be possible to have a button in the Manage Area dialog for each area that will allow you to expand that area from that dialog? Normally, if you want to create a new area, first you have to open the Manager, create it, close the manager, and then click and highlight the new area from a dropdown... seems like there could be some clicks saved with a mod. If this is already possible or done with another mod, please let me know!

Does it compatible with:
1) CleaningArea
2) Picnic Area
3) Children, school and learning

What is the best load order?
