    Description:
    Dex UI is more of a proof of concept for myself, since finding out that PA is built with “Coherent UI” I wanted to play around with menus and make them more personal and change things to my liking.

    Features:
    Added a window to the Forums from the in game menu.

    Installation:
    - Download the file
    - Unzip the file into your PA installation
    - Run the game

    Noted, i am also working on a tab system for the UI and integrating into the main menu, instead of putting the forums over the top of the Alpha video etc.

    Here is a look.

    I was going over the .js that's used to drive some interface elements. jQuery libraries are included, which is nice.

    Is it possible to get a brief list of those objects that can be used to drive the game (objects such as engine)? I'm trying to infer what calls I can from the existing scripts, but a list of game objects would be nice (since I can then use script to iterate through them to pull their properties / methods).

    Most of the interface elements are just .html files, with images loaded from the HDD. Very nice, and easily moddable, too.

    Particularly loved the in-game icon for the Orbital Gas Mine :)

    I don't suppose you'd be interested in some collaboration on UI work at some point?
