[0.15] Organize permissions into logical groups

Post by mattj256 »

TL;DR: The permissions screen should group permissions together that have something in common. For example all permissions related to trains should be listed consecutively.

Easiest to implement: reorder the permissions so logical groups are displayed together.

A little harder to implement: use indentation to visually display the groups.

Hardest implementation: use collapsible lists. Example

There are two issues here: (1) It helps the user make sense of the permissions if they are organized into logical groups. (2) It's better if the user can easily add or remove all permissions in a category with one click.

Example categories:
- admin (add/edit/modify permission group)

- GUI
- crafting
- cursor/inventory controls
- mining
- filter
- modify entity (rotate, change recipe, etc.)

- trains
- research
- circuit network
- blueprint construction and deconstruction
- rocket
