Workstation no categories problem

Hey everyone,

I'm having a bit of a problem with creating new workstations. Everything goes according to plan except for the categories. If anyone knows how to set categories inside a new workstation I could really use a hand. It is really lagging hard when opening the workstation, as it's trying to load 140 pages of recipes.

Here is what the crafting list categories look like inside the workstation.

So the first thing I notice here is that it's using a flame icon as if this workstation is a campfire. It is an advanced workbench and uses the "Workstation" class, not "Campfire" or "Forge". Here is all my coding for the workstation.

Blocks.xml

Code: 
AdvancedWorkbench,blocks,Workstation,KgNone,Advanced Workbench,,,,
AdvancedWorkbenchDesc,blocks,Workstation,EnChanged,"The Advanced workbench allows you to craft items the normal workbench can't. Using tools for welding, forging and more.",,,,
So once again there are absolutely no problems with the functionality of this Workstation. All recipes and tools work. The model works. Just the HUGE recipe list causing lag problems. Any help or insight will be so appreciated! Thank you in advance. :D

 
I think this is what you need.
Emu's Recipe Manager

Hey thanks for the response DUST2DEATH. It appears part of that may help.

From the Recipe Manager

A patch mod for workstations to limit viewing only the recipes that are created within it and are unlocked.
Click to expand...
To limit the recipes to only ones made inside the workstation i can change the line

Code: 
<property name="CraftingAreaRecipes" value="player,workbench,AdvancedWorkbench"/>
to

Code: 
<property name="CraftingAreaRecipes" value="AdvancedWorkbench"/>
so that's not a problem, however this workstation should have all the recipes in it from the players, the workbench, and the advanced workbench because of how it works late game in my mod. Hiding unknown recipes would help slightly but I fear not enough to make a serious impact. Are there features to the Recipes Manager that are not listed in the description? If so, Then maybe it is the right choice. Otherwise I think I need something else. Thanks so much Dust2death
