@Toffer90 All fonts changes you do affect whole game, not just Sevopedia
Now game menu font is big and ingame font is kinda broken.
I'm using end of history savegame, that I finished in July by the way as there are interesting things in screnshots .

Can we have building lists divided by map category?
It would be especially useful for space buildings.

I know.

Now game menu font is big and ingame font is kinda broken.

Wasn't broken for me, you'll need to describe what text where that you think is broken and why/how.

BTW I am now doing the rest of the white space fixes.

I noticed and fixed the weird symbol at the end of words, it will be gone in next update.

What about too large font? Can't be it at least consistent - in some places font is 2x bigger than in others.

I just don't see a problem in your pics raxxo. All screenshots look normal to me.

Well text in top of screenshot is overlapping and there are weird symbols after words in few examples.
Sevopedia font description is bigger than index font.
Font in BUG (not bug as glith but as in Better Unaltered Gameplay settings meaning) options is much larger than needed.

It seems like all indexes are loading in instant except for leaders in leadership section and upgrade trees.

But your 1st 2 screenshots do not show the sevopedia, just in game shots main screen.

Edit: and your 3rd with the Sevopedia I don't see any "weird symbols after words" either. It all looks normal to me. Nothing seems out of place or added that would look strange.

Well all font changes in sevopedia are affecting whole game.

Here is comparison of fonts without and with this modmod.
With this mod font is needlessly bigger and sometimes overlap like on top bar.

Spoiler Main menu :

Spoiler Loading text :

Spoiler Game :

Spoiler BUG settings :

Spoiler Sevopedia :

Edit: this weird' symbol thing is very subtle' here - bit subtlier than in this example I just wrote.

Spoiler :

In this screenshot you can see it in "provides 1 resourcename...." list

Fonts have always had different sizes around the game, I simply made most font bigger and added one more font size (the smallest in the game) that is currently only used in the pedia, but will be used other places where we want text to be real small.
The list of what is built has always been smaller than the text in the "mouse hover over" window which has always been smaller than most other text which has always been smaller than the typical header text used in the main menu and as headers to different windows.
vanilla has four different font sizes, I added one more that is smaller than those four and made those four bigger.

I guess you can change it to version smaller so font outside sevopedia looks same with and without this modmod unlike in my screenshots above, where this mod made all fonts bigger.

You can always delete the resource and xml folder in the modmod, then you won't get different font from this modmod.
I want most font to be bigger, and I will make changes to most interfaces and text outside the pedia to accommodate that.

I think I have finished removing all the white space from the path and file names.

ALL of them? Wow, DH, thank you deeply. I was trying to free myself up to work on this but your charging in and getting it done was some great teamwork. Very appreciated!

So technologies and resources don't have pink squares in wiki now?

There is an issue with weird vertical lines at the end of all words in v0.5.3.1, it is fixed on my computer right now. There is also some unavoidable overlapping of text that will be fixed later.
I may release a hotfix (v0.5.3.2) later today to address the strange symbol at the end of words, unless I have enough progress in other areas to release a proper update (v0.5.4) that includes all my changes since v.0.5.3.1.

Here are two screenshots using XP at 1024X768 resolution. .

In the map screen image top right the Corporations and Espionage icins are not displayed.

Almost looks like you have the font installed... not sure, looks different, but that might just be the resolution you used.
(Edit: You did try without installing the font I posted, right?)
Was Main menu (single player, new game, load game, options, etc.) font really small, like the size of this text here?

Weird that those two buttons were missing...
Thanks for the report.
