Undelayed Menus

        💡 Beginner Tips

        • If you're using a mod manager, install this like any other mod; if manual, just drop the files into your game's Data folder.
        • Since this mod tweaks UI behavior, test it with your other UI mods to ensure no conflicts—disable others if menus act weird.
        • Check the mod's page for any updates or patches if you're on a newer game version, as UI mods can break after game updates.
