The in-sim GUI should probably be considered an experiment which won’t be developed further - while it was being created, the core developers agreed that use of Qt to provide ‘out of window’ GUI was reasonable. At some point (possibly quite soon) I’ll enable a version of the Qt launcher to be triggered from the in-sim menu (but as a separate dialog), at least an an experimental feature.

Note the download failures when installing / upgrading many packages (and related, failure to download thumbnails) is something I am actively working on at the moment, since it’s currently very annoying!

Kind regards,
James
