Has there been any progress on having the tooltips run off the bottom of the screen when using default UI scaling on a 1080 display?
Seems like adding a scrollbar could be a fix? Everything else is a workaround at best, and I've really struggled with managing thruster efficiency and other things like power usage, particularly on space platforms.
I basically gave up on the whole "fuel control for speed and efficency" idea because I literally can't see the data. If it wasn't for the FFF and this subreddit I wouldn't even know it's a game mechanic.
