Only add 2000+ recipes, and the game's crafting menu is already act like a battered car and slowly? It's a attempt to fix the terrible laggy craft menu but also maintain all function. Because I can't stand for such an inefficient algorithm in this game.

  • In Filter All mode,its would be a little slower while open crafting menu and list will flicker while switch category.
  • use U to force reload menu list with original mechanism if there is anything missing.
  • I'd appreciate it if you could report the actual effect, I would like to know how much lag this mod can reduce
  • have fun :D

What did this mod do:

  • It mess with whole crafting menu UI based on 41.68 and replace it.
  • Prevent the Craft Menu to repopulating whole freak list every single time,and only refresh some necessary data.
  • Prevent use quick sorting on already sorted list and caused serious laggy.
  • Prevent duplicated sorting task at the same time while in All Filter mode under every category.

noticed:

  • This mod will conflict with Reduce lag of Crafting menu. We overwrite the same files. You only need to pick one to use,otherwise there only one of mod will work.
  • Its confirmed works with Craft Helper Continued.
  • Its have conflicting with Spoon's Real Metalworking,thanks @Switch's report.

There are currently 2000+ recipes in my testing, my computer needs to wait for nearly 4 seconds to open crafting menu, and it can be opened immediately with experiment fix
