Good Mod (in dev or completed) to un-consolize the UI?

The UI just feels off from a PC perspective, limiting the responses to 6 options and having things in random places constrained to game pad like states...

Kind of sad it has come to this, but any mods out there is developing to change the UI up?

The game is public for about 24 hours now. Give it some more time please ;-)

The UI is undoubtedly built from the gound up around the gamepad, so it is 'gamepadised' not 'consolised' per se.

One thing I'd ask you modders to consider is that when/if Hotas controls get sorted the 'gamepadised' UI might serve a purpose again with Hotas users and their PoV hat switches etc...

So don't be too quick to label the UI as junk for PC users, its more accurate to refer to keyboard & mouse differences and weaknesses.
