✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust (2,461 endorsements, 166k downloads) — this is a must-have for builders
- Simple, focused fix that does exactly what it says
- Recent update (August 2024) means it's likely compatible with current game patches
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects workshop selection visuals — no other UI changes
- May not be noticeable for players who rarely use workshop mode
For Fallout 4 settlement builders who get annoyed by the bulky highlight covering their builds. If you spend hours in workshop mode, this makes selecting objects way less frustrating. Skip if you're a pure explorer and rarely touch settlement building.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're on PC, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager like Vortex — no special setup needed.
- Test it in a settlement with lots of overlapping objects to see the difference immediately.
- If you use other UI mods, check load order — this one should work fine, but keep it near the top to avoid conflicts.
