Admin Menu Button Position Fix

Open RepoAdminMenu in one click, and keep your pause menu tidy. Adds an Admin Menu button to the pause menu and spaces every pause-menu button evenly, so buttons added by mods never overlap.

Highlights

• Admin Menu button. A button in the pause menu that opens and closes RepoAdminMenu. It shows when you're the host or in single player, which is when the admin menu can open.
• No more overlapping buttons. Mods that add pause-menu buttons (Admin Menu, REPOConfig's Mods, and others) each pick a fixed spot, so they often land on top of each other, or on top of Main Menu once Active Moons shows up mid-run. Every time the pause menu opens, this spaces all the buttons between Continue and Quit Game evenly and keeps their order.
• Replaces AdminMenuButton. The separate AdminMenuButton mod isn't needed any more. If it's still installed, its button is hidden so you only see one.

Getting started

1. Install with r2modman or the Thunderstore app. RepoAdminMenu and MenuLib install with it.
2. Host a game (or play single player) and press Esc. The Admin Menu button is in the list.

Nothing about the admin menu itself changes. There are no new permissions, and it still only opens for the host or in single player.

Settings

BepInEx/config/ricketywrecked.repo.adminmenubuttonfix.cfg, or REPOConfig in-game.

Technical details

MenuLib's CreateREPOButton has no layout or collision handling, and REPOConfig hardcodes Mods at (126, 65). Vanilla rows are 32 units apart, and with Active Moons showing, Main Menu sits at y = 91, so Main Menu, Admin Menu and Mods all overlap with no gap to aim for.

A postfix on MenuPageEsc.Start snapshots the buttons that exist at that moment, before MenuLib adds mod buttons, so those are exactly the vanilla buttons. The highest and lowest become the column's top and bottom (Continue and Quit Game). One frame later, every active MenuButton on the page within the column's x position and inside that span is spaced evenly. Each button's private originalButtonPosition cache (restored by MenuButton.ResizeToText) is updated along with its transform. Everything is wrapped so an unexpected layout leaves the menu alone rather than breaking MenuLib's button building.

Built and tested with RepoAdminMenu 1.0.16, MenuLib 2.5.4 and REPOConfig 1.2.6 on R.E.P.O v0.4.4.3.
