Custom-inputs with consuming type "game-only" should work inside textfields

Post by raiguard »

I had the "brilliant" idea of lettings users of my Recipe Book mod cycle categories by using a custom-input while the search textfield is focused. However, this doesn't work, because when you're in a textfield, custom-inputs don't work at all.

I would like to request a way to make custom-inputs override textfield input. It makes the most sense to me that this would be tied to consuming = "game-only", since the documentation implies that it should override this.

Thanks!

Text fields override everything and everyone. The game itself is blocked while they are working - so this isn't going to happen.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
