Sorry, I didn't see your post before (I was kind of busy).

If I have enough time, I could do something for the end of the week (and if 0.13 not breaks everything)

If you think you can do it yourself (better / before me), just do it. I won't complain (just tell me so we are not 2people working on ...

require "util"
copy = util.table.deepcopy(table)

would it be possible to make it sort when you close your inventory?

I don't think so.
I didn't find any event related to inventory (or key press), this is why the button is always visible.

Okay, after some test, I dropped dropped the util.formattime function because it doesn't count hours, so I've written my own function, and I've finished with this :

in game day time (game.daytime) is not a value in ticks but a float from to 0 to 1 where 0 is midday (afternoon begins) and 1 is (also) midday (morning ...

Hi,
thanks for your nice, small but very usefull little mod.
