One menu for all my mods: press G or D-pad Down and pick an action, no key bindings to learn. Evict tenants, skip time, pin cases, control rooms and more.

Install

Install it with Thunderstore Mod Manager or r2modman. Every mod in the list, and BepInEx, is installed with it. Each mod keeps its own settings in BepInEx/config, and you can switch any of them off in your mod manager.

Playing without a mod manager? Every mod is also on the Steam Workshop, in the Sm3gm Quality of Life collection (it needs CatCar Lib, which loads code mods from the Workshop).

Some mods only change new cities (Essential Shops), so start a new city for everything to show. New to these mods? Press G or D-pad Down (X and Y together on the case board) for the Quick Menu, which has the actions of the other mods in one place.

All Sm3gm mods are on Thunderstore.
