The mod manager in the game is inadequate. If I have a total of 5-10 mods, it suits. When there are fifty, it's complicated. And the need to restart the game after any change is annoying.
That's why I made a little program about it. Not much, allowing you to turn modes on and off, and simply change their order with the mouse by dragging them to another position. You can also save the current mods configuration to a file and restore it later.
The program changes these values in the registry:
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Shining Rock Software LLC\Banished\ModIndex_XXX" and "ModEnabled_XXX"
and does not change anything else.
Made using Dephi-7, tested on WinXP-32bit and Win10.
When you first run it, you need to set the path to the Banished executable (usually Application-32.exe or Application-64.exe). It can be changed at any time later.
Do not use ModMan when the game is running because your changes will be lost, the game will override these values.
So, if anyone wants to try ...
