Description
Adds a lightweight FPS counter to your HUD that displays the current frames-per-second as a plain number (defaulting to the top-middle of the screen). A new FPS Counter button in Video Settings opens a small settings screen where you can cycle through multiple display colors and choose one of six positions (top-left, top-middle, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-middle, bottom-right) with a live preview; changes apply immediately. The mod is unobtrusive, localizable, and requires no commands—just open Video Settings to enable and configure the on-screen FPS readout.
