[200] Fix the production dropdown menu sorting

The way assemblers (producers) are listed in the production dropdown menu is a weird mess right now. Once it's just been infuriating, but with farming mods and other custom assemblers it becomes an overwhelming unsorted list, see screenshot.


Can we please have a way to sort the list in the production dropdown menu, like alphabetically or per grid? Or can we have a search bar with the dropdown to easily navigate to the desired producer?

Or give modders access to that part of the menu, so that it can be fixed. Sorting them might be as easy as

myGrid.GetAssemblerBlocks() .OrderBy(b => b.DisplayName) .ToList(); // Or array or whatever they used

There are old topics asking the same or similar things:

This is based on a question I asked on reddit some time ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/spaceengineers/comments/thqu6q/is_it_possible_to_sort_the_mess_in_the_production/
