📋 About This Mod
Easy Read - Crafting Stations
Version 2 is now available! Rebuilt from the ground up with tweaks to readability and consistency. This mod to changes the interface colour scheme of crafting stations. If you're anything like me, the dark green on dark grey combination on cooking stations is a bit hard to see. This mod aims to unify the colours of the Armour, Cooking, Industrial and Weapon station with the Pharmeceutical station colour palette.
Streamline option is also now available. Provides more crafting options onscreen at once, while maintaining good accessibility. Currently only supports standard size fonts as the large font interface requires more consideration to make it user friendly.
The mod will be modular to allow you to pick which elements you would like to install. There is also now an All-In-One mod for ease of use.
There are All-In-One 60 FPS and 120 FPS versions available under the files list which also contains updated frame rates for the Pharmeceutical station along with the rest. The download button on this description page will download the 30 FPS version by default so make sure to grab the correct version from the file page.
