So I accidentally copied the ip incorrectly and included the port, now I can't get the menu to show up. I get this output on launching the game. Also tried reinstalling a fresh copy of the mod to no avail.

That sounds about right. My main issue with it is the fact that having it all taking up screen space is a major annoyance that I can't get rid of. So long as it's not taking up the entire bottom of the screen, I think I would be happy with it.

Do you have any screenshots of what the UI used to look like, for those of us who haven't been playing for too long?

I've found one here, http://s1369.photobucket.com/user/The-MathMog/media/screenshot170_zps9da044a9.png.html. Basically, instead of running along the entire bottom of the screen, the architect menu was in the bottom left and the rest of it popped up by clicking the options on the right. The overview button popped up a window with all the current options on the bottom of the screen instead of having them take up space by being permanently visible. I believe it was alpha 12 that changed this.

I'm no modder myself, but I've made a request over there like you suggested. It's probably my best bet for playing the game again, so thanks!

Does anyone know if it would be possible to mod the UI to be like the old one was a few alpha builds ago? I've quit the game because of the current one across the entire bottom of the screen, but really want to get back into it. I've got no idea where to even begin with modding, so hopefully someone could help me out with this.

It's been quite a bit since I've last played this game, and there is only one reason. Ever since the UI changed a few builds ago, I cannot stand to play the game. I don't quite understand it, but I'm just horribly irked by the current UI. Taking up the entire bottom of the screen like that is just like putting an itch I can't quite scratch in my mind. I want to try all the new things that the game has to offer now, but honestly can't stand playing it like this. I would very much love an option to toggle the old UI style.

I can't find the download for the A11 version anywhere, can someone link it to me?
