I want to tell you why I like it opening up in the center: it reduces the distance my mouse needs to travel. By clicking E I can switches between selecting an item and placing it. But I agree that an option to remember its position or to dock it to a screen corner could be more helpful for other people.

Hello and thank you for making this great game, I purchased it last week and can't stop playing it.

I like playing with the inventory/crafting window open, or frequently use it and I stumbled across an issue that felt a bit inconvenient for my playstyle. No matter where I move the inventory/crafting window, once I close it it will always reappear in the default location(dead center covering my character and available area where I can place buildings) - I am aware that I could just use shortcuts instead, but I am always checking my crafting options and categories and by making it remember its previous location before closing it would improve my game experience.

I understand that you are very busy perfecting this game, but I would really appreciate if you could look into this small issue. Thanks!

Seriously, the game is unplayable for me because I have to move the window every time i do anything. This has to be a 5 minute fix. Please, please,
please fix this b4 1.0.

I guess that this and a lot of other GUI issues are part of the big GUI rewrite.

... unplayable...

This must be intentional by these "lazy Devs" to torture the handcrafters lol.

Am I missing a setting for this or was it never done?

Cheers, sorry for the necro

Any updates here?
I just attempted making a mod for this and it said gui is 'read-only'.
