Add a toggleable "Mod" field to the UI when hovering items
« on: February 17, 2019, 06:43:43 PM »

In .9 the "tech/manufacturer" field was added to items and ships to indicate their origin. Before the patch released I was hoping this field would solve the problem of telling items apart when playing with many mods, as that can get confusing when you add multiple packs. However, with a lot of the mods making vanilla friendly ships and adding ships to existing factions, the feature isn't working for that purpose. For example, if a mod adds a ship to the Remnant then it makes sense that the tech/manufacturer field to be filled by "Remnant", right?

Thus, I'd like an option (toggleable in the settings file?) to display the mod ID when hovering items.
