TL;DR

Group controls by mod name in the Controls GUI much like settings are grouped in the Mod settings GUI

What ?

In the Controls GUI, Mods have their own tab but it can be difficult to tell which mod a control belongs to if there are many installed mods.
Modders have to use more descriptive (and longer) description for the control to remove any ambiguity

The proposal is to put each mod's controls in their own section, like it's already done for mod settings.

Before : After:

The controls section in general needs to be cleaned up. Right now it simply displays all controls for a given category in the order they're defined in the C++ code - which makes no logical sense when trying to find a given hotkey

We have plans to improve this particular UI.

Do you have a set of mods that I could use to test how changes to the mods section of the UI handles them? The more hotkeys the better (but not fake ones please).

There is of course Picker Extended and Nanobots. Afaik Hany hands also has a bunch of hotkeys. Perhaps also https://mods.factorio.com/mods/ibeatbab ... arSwitcher and https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Bobingabout/bobinserters .
