GUI Unifyer: Unified
What is this?
GUI Unifyer: Unified is a Factorio mod that standardizes the appearance of mod buttons, making them uniform, aligned, and visually consistent. This mod harmonizes most of the in-game icons, ensuring a cleaner and more organized interface.
Originally known as Gui Unifyer, by snouz, which was inspired by Better Modbuttons by Dr_Pepper. After years without updates and the release of Factorio 2.0, the mod was in need of resurrection—and here it is, reincarnated for Factorio 2.0 and Space Age.
I'm aware there are many bugs that were reported in the discussions section on the old version. Please report them here as they occur and I will try to fix them.
⚠️ Note: Currently, there is no clean way to uninstall the mod from an existing save. Doing so may leave behind empty icons.

This mod would not have been possible without the original work by snouz, inspired by Better Modbuttons by Dr_Pepper. Most of the original code in this plugin belongs to snouz, aside of things I fixed.
