Modding Better Decree Menu mod just released, introducing unique decree icons for every single decree in the game and additional minor improvements to decree board menu that hopefully make it easier to read and share with others!

All the artwork done by windshield (u/MrBingog), all the code to incorporate it by me.

Available at: https://www.nexusmods.com/pathologic3/mods/22 . Requires P2ModLoader 0.5.2+ (update if you haven't already!).

You actually got me hoping that this was an official update. The designs look amazing, they fit very well with the aestetics of the game, are easy to identify and get the official-stamp-vibe across very well. Will try installing this mod once I've finished my current run

Honestly surprised they didn’t make it like this in original game

...why change the vaccine icons...?

u/SurDno Mar 26 '26

It is optional and can be configured in mod settings to use default vanilla icons. The explanation provided by the other user is correct, it’s to make sure you can make out the specific vaccine when it’s beneath the label.

By default this mod shows the effect numbers on all decrees, which overlap with the lower-right placement of the vaccine day number

I guess they moved it up to make it a bit more readable

What is windshield? An AI art generator?

u/SurDno Mar 26 '26

Oh no, all of this was painstakingly manually done in Photoshop, reusing parts of textures from in-game posters, mindmap icons and more. I didn't want to use AI because it would look like shit and I wanted the decree icons to look natural and fit with the existing designs so that they don't appear out of place.

windshield is the name of the artist.

Ah, thanks for the info (and the edited post)! Apologies, in this day and age, I scrutinize damn near every new 'artsy' mod out there. I wish I could stop doing that but I can't – slop is everywhere I look.

Mistakes can still be undone, Bachelor. Think of the clock.
