Features

Entity Selector

This screen allows outlining of any entity in the game. There's a search bar for narrowing down entities and buttons to organize the results by entity category, deselect all entities, and toggle on/off the outlines. Entities added by other mods appear in the results. The selected entities are automatically saved to a config file.

The menu is accessible using Mod Menu or a custom keybind.

Controls for toggling the outlines and opening the selector
