Controlling in FTB Evolution 2

Same as in the All the Mods - Gravitas 4.0 guide

Controlling is a small quality-of-life mod that adds a search bar to the Key-Bindings menu. With a modpack this big, you end up with a long list of keybinds, and this lets you type a name to find the one you want instead of scrolling.^[1]

What it adds

• A search bar in the Key-Bindings menu, so you can look up a keybind by its name.^[1]
• A button that shows only the keybinds that conflict with each other, which makes conflicts much easier to fix.^[1]
• A way to see which keys are still available to be bound.^[1]

In this pack

The pack includes Controlling version 9.0+23, and it has been part of the pack since version 1.1 or earlier.^[2]

The sources here do not show this mod in the pack's quest book, so I won't place it in a chapter or group. Treat it as a menu tool that works as soon as you open the Key-Bindings screen.^[1][2]

Same as in the All the Mods 10: To the Sky 2.0.4 guide

Good news: there is nothing to craft here. Controlling is a quality-of-life mod that changes the Key-Bindings menu, so you can start using it as soon as you open that menu in the pack.^[1]

The mod page describes these features:^[1]

• A search bar that lets you find a key binding by its name.^[1]
• A button that shows only the key bindings that conflict with each other, which makes them easier to fix.^[1]
• A way to see which keys are still available to be bound.^[1]

A good first step

Before you start building, open the Key-Bindings menu and use the button that shows only conflicting key bindings, so you can fix them early. Then use the search bar to find any binding by name, and check which keys are available before you rebind something.^[1]

The mod page doesn't list any pack-specific changes, so what the mod does here is what the project page describes.^[1]

Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide

Controlling is a Key-Bindings menu tool. The project page describes it as a mod that adds a search bar to that menu. The sources describe no machines, multiblocks, power, fluids or item handling for it, so there is no tech or automation to set up here.^[1]

What the mod does

Here is what the project page says Controlling adds to the Key-Bindings menu.^[1]

• Search by name: you can search for keybinds using their name in the Key-Bindings menu, which makes a key binding easy to find.^[1]
• Conflict filter: a button that shows only the keybinds that conflict with each other, which makes them easier to fix.^[1]
• Free key view: you can see which keys are available to be bound.^[1]

Using it

The sources only describe features inside the Key-Bindings menu, so that is where you use this mod.^[1]

FTB Evolution 2 1.1.0 ships Controlling 26.1.2.7, using the NeoForge build of the mod. It was already in the pack by version 1.0.2 or earlier, so you have not gained or lost the mod between those releases.^[3]

What is in Controlling 26.1.2.7

The mod's own changelog for this version is short and is all behind-the-scenes work. There are three entries:^[4]

• The curseforgegradle build tooling was updated, which fixed the build.^[4]
• Remaining usages of the old Fabric mod id were fixed properly.^[4]
• The correct Fabric mod id is now used for events.^[4]

None of these entries describe a new feature or a change to how the controls screen behaves, so there is nothing new to relearn here.^[4]

Unverified Pack changelog entries for Controlling are not shown in the sources here, so any change the pack itself made to this mod between releases is unverified.
