    This mod is brilliant, but I'd really love if we could collapse the app's UI into a small icon. Sadly, we can't switch between UI layouts manually in free roam, meaning the app covers up much of the screen all the time. That would solve this. Thanks!

    1) This thread has not been messaged on in a year, please do not bump old threads.
    2) This mod has been a vanilla feature of the game since the dawn of time.
    3) You most definitely can switch UI layouts in freeroam, it's a drop down menu in the UI section.

    1) I accidentally found this thread as there was no dicussion thread for the updated version: https://www.beamng.com/resources/winds-of-change.33596/
    2) For what its worth, the vanilla UI app doesn't let you control wind speed/direction variation
    3) Most definitely not. Since the dawn of time, you've been forced to sacrifice a built in internal game layout (e.g, for a mission), which then ruins the original use case. Custom layouts, even when given separate filenames, names & IDs, aren't separated by the game properly, preventing you from having multiple freeroam layouts to swtich between. A simple forum search reveals threads about this issue.

    Hey I'm the creator of that mod and just happened to stumble across this post. Glad you like it.
    I'll add a collapse button in an upcoming update shortly.

    Thanks so much! I think it would also be best if you started a thread for your mod, so there's a "Discussion" tab on the modpage where people can report issues / suggest ideas, if you're open to that :)

    The app is in the game itself. Locate the Wind! app as you edit the layout of existing UI apps.
    Syntax has likely changed between versions, the built in version uses it while the one in this topic uses old one.
