Better Select Next

Description
This mod enhances the functionality of the "Next Colonist" and "Previous Colonist" commands.

Now when you select a thing on the map and click the "Next Colonist" shortcut (usually "."), it will find the next suitable thing based on the following criteria:
  • If it is a pawn, the next thing will be a pawn of the same race and faction.
  • Otherwise, the next thing will be of the same ThingDef.
The order follows the positions of the things on the map.

The camera will not move when pressing the shortcut with SHIFT.

Here's an example in the screenshot below:


The functionality for "Previous Colonist" follows the same logic.

@jswill, @lol, fixed now.

@jswill double that. Also a soft incompatibility with CAI 5000: selecting raiders means player is able to see enemies in the fog of war

Might need to add a check if the next selected item is in fog as I could find resoures inside mountains with this

Works like a charm, an example of a great mod. No bloat, clean and clear. Thank you!

@Tirith Amar, now pressing next / previous with SHIFT will not move the camera.
