📋 About This Mod
After playing around with fishing in the expedition I realized how painful it was to release multiple fishes with the inventory closing everytime you released one, so I made this mod for myself to use and uploading it for anyone else that also is annoyed by it, the mod basically makes it not close the inventory when you release a fish.
Before uploading I looked around and found that someone had already done this mod before, it was brehny, but their mod was outdated and still using the old method with PAKs that the game doesn't use anymore, after contacting them, they said they were out of the NMS loop and that I was allowed to upload my mod.
They also made their own mod hidden hence why I can't link it here as credit for making it first.
