Wrong pack release order?
I never quite understood how CAS items are sorted in TS4 so I decided to work on a mod that sorts CAS items by pack release order, similar to how it worked in TS2&3. I managed to get the PackReleaseOrder array from gamedata.GameContent and used it to sort CAS items. It appeared to work perfectly at first, except that it somehow thinks Kids Room Stuff was released before Dine Out.

And then I checked the xml files for ui tuining and found out that it incorrectly lists SP07 before GP03.
However, even after overriding this xml file and the corresponding DATA file with the correct order, the UI somehow still has the wrong release order. Is the UI getting this info from somewhere else? Can you guys fix this in a future update if it's in somewhere we can't edit?
