    BUGS! awesome but we have a problem, the ui no longer automatically resizes correctly when the amount of things to build gets over a certain threshold and the econ numbers get too big

    Floating Frames currently use fixed width/height :(
    I'm working on getting it to be dynamic.

    instead of using any number maybe give a range? if that would be easier anyway.

    Yes this is known, but right now raevn is working on the mod manager, he told me he knows what the problem is but the mod manager is more important right now, he will get around to it

    Alrighty, new version should be available soon that fixes the current issues with dynamic-sized elements (main culprit being the build bar).

    I'd really like to be able to use this mod, but on OS X this mod makes all the Main menu UI disappear. Not sure if you can do anything about it, just an FYI.
