i played other maps and tested combinations of 0.17 mods, and thus only got back to PDA and Asphalt Roads today.
the "new" options to set priorities in mod options and thus doing it easily and permanently is GREAT !!! thanks !!!
btw: i also like the detailed tooltips in Asphalt Roads which tell exactly how many IDs are used or released by selecting specific groups and thus being able to tailor it to my needs (between 0 and 64 IDs towards the "255 ID" hardlimit). thanks for those option too ! it would be nice if other mods (eg Alien Biomes and Dectorio) that potentially use up lots of IDs and that already have such options to enable/disable groups of tiles, also would have such helpful tooltips :-)
