TOOL will be getting an update soon that will improve the grouping box.
Now the box will be a full square, with corner markers that go to the ground. To make control easier, the corner that will be moved next is marked in orange. You can see this in the video above.

TOOL 2.0.4 - Paranormal Stuff Update
Yesterday's patch didn't break TOOL functionally, but it did visually screw up some menus.
Here's an update to fix that. 👌
It also corrects a (harmless) LastUIException that could manifest under certain conditions.
Please delete your old TOOL mod if you haven't already, and f...

All,
This has been a very nerve-racking night. A storm knocked my trash can over and two of my 3 dogs got into a trash bag tonight and are suffering mold toxicity. I've just finished a very panicked trip to the emergency vet, where they're being treated for it and kept overnight. I just wa...

This is only a proof of concept, actual mod implementation will take longer and some additional decision making on my part.
Just wanted to share with you guys that it's now possible.

Want to hide that CC? No problem. Want debug on? No cheats required. Just a click of a button.
Thanks to my patrons for the CC toggle suggestion on the last poll. This will be coming as part of the Organized Debug.

Expandable BuildBuy Catalog - Public Release
This is actually small piece of Project Raven. People saw it in my TOOL tutorial and it seemed to be in demand so I've decided to release early as a standalone mod. 🙂

Organized Debug - Decision Poll
If you had a choice, would you prefer:
1. The CC items to always display and the filter would restrict it to CC only, as it does by default
OR
2. CC not shown at all unless the CC option is checked, so you could toggle between CC vs Maxis content.
