There are three overall Menu modes which are granted to players or groups of players via the INI settings.

- Advanced Mode - has access to both Crafting and Spawning sub-modes. The Category list contains all mods, plus Official. It also displays the structures in a player's inventory, so they can be quickly deleted with the Delete All Structures button, or equipped quickly, similiar to the Selector from Useful Tools, but for structures.

- Standard Mode - only has access to Crafting sub-mode and the Player Inventory feature mentioned above. It lacks the Delete all Structures button.

- Simple Mode - If a player has neither of the above modes, they will have the Simple Mode. Simple menu only has the Player Inventory feature.

- There is a hard-coded backup hotkey to open the Arkitect Item Menu if it fails to open via R or whatever key you've bound it to. Press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R, then go to the Help tab and set a hotkey as it is most likely blank.


Crafting sub-mode - The idea behind the crafting menu is mobility, convenience, and instant crafting, at the cost of no XP gain. If you are trying to level by crafting, use the Arkitect Crafting Bench or the item’s normal crafting table.
