Realm Works gives you a lot of options and with active development having picked up again, we'll hopefully see more in the future.

This brings me to the UI, the accessment and location of all these options. Even as a frequent user for several years, I keep searching options and we see asking people for help here regularly.
I think this is because they are spread out over the screen and visually hidden in drop-down menus behind the hammer and wrench symbol. I'm not a fan of drop-downs. Even though I was sceptical at first, I think the last ten years have shown that ribbons are the better way to do it. RW already has ribbons, but uses them only sparsly.
Other programs like MS Office have a basic set of ribbon tabs and context-sensitive others that only appear when appropriate (like picture or table tools).

Thus my concrete suggestion is:
Move everything that is currently in a option menu to ribbon menus and maybe hide those that aren't currently useful for the player.
