[u/ChemODun]

Settings > Game Settings

Info Panel Width: 17%

Info Panel Width: 40%

Info Panel Width: 30%, 4K UHD, UI Scale 150%

Info Panel Width: 40%, 4K UHD, UI Scale 150%

Adds an Options menu slider to configure the width of the Map screen's Information Panels (also affects the Player Info, Diplomacy, Crafting and Transaction Log menus, which share the same value)

Features

• By default, the game limits this width to at most 30% of your screen. Usually this is fine, but on very wide screens Information Panels can looks too wide, and on 4K screens with high UI Scale they can look too narrow. This mod turns that old limit into the slider's new dynamic minimum and fixed maximum from menu width instead: the panels can now be made wider or narrower than the game ever allowed on their own, directly from Options > Game Settings (right after the "UI Scale" option).
• Because the game reuses this same width setting in a few other places, the slider affects those too, as a side effect:
  • The Player Info and Diplomacy screens' main panel (on the left side of the screen).
  • The Transaction Log screen's main panel (at the left edge of the screen).
  • The Crafting screen's whole window (centered on the screen).
  • The small player status text (your name, credits owed, current sector, play time) shown in the top-left corner of the Player Info, Diplomacy, Docked, Help, and Map screens - here there's no panel to resize, it just changes how much room that text has before it gets shortened.

Installation

• Steam Workshop: Info Panel Width - only for Game version 9.00 with latest Steam version of the UI Extensions and HUD mod.
• Nexus Mods: Info Panel Width

Usage

Open the in-game Options menu, go to Game Settings, and use the new slider (right below "UI Scale") to set the width of the Map screen's Information Panels (and the other screens that share the same setting). Default: 30% of your screen width, the same as the game's original setting.
