UI optimization guide
WIP
Preface
The goal of this guide is to instruct on how to facilitate your performance as a player.
Disclaimer; you might get lost, in which case you might want to reset your ui.
You can effectively do so by deleting you config(s) folder(s), found in the LuaUi folder of your game files, perhaps the ones in Luamenu aswell. If you are on steam and this doesnt do it you can uninstall steam and delete your game files.
Upon reinstalling everything it should be back to default.
