:backhand_index_pointing_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.
I’m using a custom UI mod, and now the population panel is flashing even though I’ve turned off the “Remaining Population Alert.” It flashes when the available population space is less than 5 while units are in the queue.

I understand that this issue doesn’t occur with the default UI, but there the text also starts highlighting in yellow when the available population is less than 5, so the problem is probably related to that. It would be nice to have an option to disable this flashing.

Or please let me know which files handle this flashing so I can try to disable it myself in my mod.

If u tell me which mod u use then i can try to remove the yellow flashing. i had the same issue when the patch dropped and i found a way to adapt my resource panel mod to not have it flash yellow or flash at all.
if u want to know where this is happening, its inside resourcepanel.json. in the section on population count there are now 3 different user states, the first is the normal one and the third is the flashing state. (i dont know what the 2nd is for). you can set the font color from the third state to be the same as the first so nothing changes to yellow)

Thank you for your answer, but I have already solved this problem myself :slight_smile:
