[B42] Advanced SandboxUI Framework
Advanced SandboxUI Framework (ASUIF)
[b]Version 0.4.0[/b] | Build 42
[hr]
What is ASUIF?
ASUIF is a [b]client-side UI framework[/b] that enhances the Sandbox Options screen with modern, interactive widgets.
Originally created for [b]Living Hordes[/b] (my zombie migration mod), I'm sharing it so other modders can give their sandbox settings a polished look without reinventing the wheel.
Features
[list]
[*] [b]Rich layouts[/b] — Headers, separators, text blocks, collapsible sections
[*] [b]Enhanced sliders[/b] — Color gradients, reset buttons, float/int support
[*] [b]Range sliders[/b] — Dual-thumb for min/max values
[*] [b]Proportion bars[/b] — Linked values that sum to a total
[*] [b]Live curves[/b] — Real-time formula visualization
[*] [b]Profile presets[/b] — Dropdowns that lock/unlock related options
[*] [b]Conditional visibility[/b] — Show warnings or options based on other values
[*] [b]Live text[/b] — Dynamic labels that update as you change settings

For Players
[b]This mod does nothing on its own.[/b]
It's a framework used by other mods. If a mod supports ASUIF, subscribing to this will enhance its sandbox options screen with a better UI.
[b]Not required![/b] Mods using ASUIF work perfectly fine without it — they simply fall back to the vanilla sandbox UI.
For Modders
ASUIF is an [b]optional dependency[/b]. Your mod works with or without it.
Integration is simple:
if not ASUIF or not ASUIF.setup then return end
ASUIF.setup({
page = { id = "MyMod", sandboxPage = "Sandbox_MyMod", title = "My Mod" },
groups = { { id = "Settings", title = "Settings" } },
elements = {
{ type = ASUIF.ElementType.Header, text = "My Mod", level = "h1" },
{ groupId = "Settings", type = ASUIF.ElementType.OptionIntSlider,
sandboxModule = "MyMod", sandboxKey = "Difficulty",
label = "Difficulty", min = 1, max = 10, step = 1 },
},
})
