There will be an update to MDM today, that will only address some feedback and remove the A-to-Z automated sorting and move it to its own settings. Later on that later.We are here to decide on the next big feature! YAY! WE MADE IT!Whichever option wins i will focus on that feature next for the next big release!I repeat this is for Modsby Dropdown Menu, not IPM.Its this thing (image is from the future update i'm testing locally):

Instant menu + MDM will come, yes-yes! But not in the next update because that is not ready yet on a pure architectural level. The current IPM v1.0.2 needs to get out of alpha and i need to then focus on somehow reconnect them because they don't like one another anymore that way :( we are working on it! That is why i'm back to work on some MDM for a bit while IPM is taking a break to collect feedback. FUTURE FEATURE LIST TO VOTE ON:1. Dark mode - A new settings toggle to make the menu go dark/light mode2. Queue Multiple Items - Yes, you can use the same menu to select many things. By maybe holding the SHIFT button will keep the menu open.3. Sort by usage - Most categories are sorted by frequency of usage. aka: Friendly will be always first if that's the most popular one, wicked whims second, etc. 4. Last used go first - Last used option (leaf) is saved and will appear as number zero on the root menu level. The amount of last used can be adjusted in settings.5. Drag Sorting - Allows you to toggle mode where you can drag things around and that's the way it will stay.6. Transparency settings- Make the background look like its made out of glass or half transparent.PS: all of these are in theory possible, different difficulty and challenges but i can't guarantee that dark mode wont look like shirt stains with all those bright icons on itmultichoice possibleFeel free to discuss amongs yourself as well, i'm open to any banter

I voted Queue Multiple Items (excellent idea especially with the SHIFT option you proposed!) but WAIT: why remove the A to Z sorting?! That made navigating / locating what I am after, amidst my heaps of mods on the list, so much faster?

OK also Dark Mode ( I use Chalk UI, so that's perfect ) but it is secondary to the Queue Multiple Items idea. EDIT: also: is scrolling the menu with the mouse wheel coming soon ?

A-to-Z had to be turned off by default because i'm making a lot of angry modders and mod users that can still use MDM and enjoy their favourite sorting mods in whichever order. Was one of the most requested complaints. Yea i like Queue Multiple Items idea, at first i thought it would be very difficult to build - but then it daunted on me that all that needs to happen is the menu should just stay open after selection and then hope that doesn't break EA

Oh you can still have A-to-Z sorting its just a click away in the new settings. Off by default, but still can be turned on

Ah, alright. Thanks for clarifying. That's surprising, and quite interesting that people disliked it. Thank you for keeping it as an option!

Queuing multiple items is by far the best and most useful suggestion out of all of them, and it alone would put this mod among the most useful and essential game mods i have, especially once it's integrated with instant pie menu + searchable pie menu. it's really the only feature on the list that i care about, i could honestly do without the rest of them.

Good to know, its leaning towards that heavily with the majority it seems.
