About This File
This is another BSC Menu Management Lot mod to help keep your menus from becoming overloaded. This is for the DEDWD Highway Walls set. There is a construction lot (shown by the tractor icon) that you plop somewhere in your city, run the game for a few days and the rest of the DEDWD Highway Walls set of icons appears in the menu.
How it works
The BSC Menu Management Lot Mod is based on a "construction lot" that triggers a reward script, much like the in-game rewards. When plopping this construction lot, the script will unhide the other icons of a lot set, as long as the construction lot is placed in a city. Bulldozing it will gray out the rest of the icons, and after saving and restarting your city, the icons will be hidden again. For expanding your creation, simply plop the construction lot again.
Drawbacks
Unfortunately, the technique also has some drawbacks, which are caused by the method that is used for the menu icon feature. Like with the in-game rewards, it takes some game days until the icons show up (usually a few days or up to a game month). You also have to click on the menu again after plopping each lot, since it gets out of focus, so you can't plop a large number of lots by clicking several times in a row. As already mentioned, for hiding the icons again, you will have to exit and re-enter the city, and due to the usage of a reward script, it's necessary to add a "landmark" occupant group to the construction lots, so they will also show up at the end of the landmark menu (only the construction lots, not the other ones!).
