Compatibility
Any shops added through content patcher is compatible.
Happy Home Designer implements a completely custom menu, so it takes precedence over this mod for catalogues (as it should).
This mod uses vanilla assets for most of it's UI elements, with exception of the tabs for QiGemShop and LostItem shop which have custom tab graphics created to match those shop's themes.
- Those are loaded from the asset folder of this mod, but you can override it in content patcher by targeting:
- mushymato. CompactSearchableShopMenu/tab/QiGemShop for QiGemShop
- mushymato. CompactSearchableShopMenu/tab/LostItems for LostItems
For mod makers who used a custom shop visual theme, you can include compatibility by loading a custom tab texture to mushymato. CompactSearchableShopMenu/tab/<yourShopId>, 16x16 is the recommended size.
The icon used for tab that don't have associated item (i.e. the uncategorized tab) is a 16x16 texture created from LooseSprites/Cursors at 330,357,7,13. It can be edited via content patcher by targeting mushymato. CompactSearchableShopMenu/icon/default.
Mods can put their items into separate tab by adding context tag with format cssm_tab_<special_tab_name>.
Incompatible Mods
Since this mod heavily modifies draw related logic on shop menu, it will be incompatible with any mod assuming the vanilla layout. Refer to pinned comment for up to date info about mods known to be incompatible.
Gamepad
The grid menu works with gamepads, and you can use LeftShoulder and RightShoulder to switch between category tabs (not rebindable).
To toggle search, press L-stick.
