Precise Buffs not working with <MY-FAV-MOD>
Let me know in the comments section of the mod itself

<MY-FAV-MOD> adds overlaying menu, i can't see Precise Buffs button
Use [shift]+[c] shortcut.

Why <MY-FAV-MOD> isn't working; TLDR
Add <YOUR-FAV-MOD>'s name (from it's descriptor) as dependency in Precise Buffs' descriptor

Well, let's dive a little in this problem and why i need to maintain this mod.
Simple story to tell - almost every single mod in existence is trying to override everything that PBs adding. I have no idea why.
If you dive into the logs - you can see that PBs national ideas and custom gui strings cannot be found by the engine while loaded along with incompatible mod.
So to make sure nothing is overridden - i must ensure that PBs is loaded AFTER the incompatible mods.
I achieve this by simply adding their descriptor names into my descriptor dependencies.
Is this a bad design choice? Yes.
Does it work? Also, yes.
Do I need to constantly maintain every name for every new mod released? Well... Ye-e-es?
Do I need to also account to the fact that some mod devs keep their version number inside the descriptor name and break compatibility with every patch? You got it by now - Y-E-S.
If, like, anyone can find a standing solution to this problem - I will metaphorically love them with every inch of my big... um ...every inch of my big soul. Yes. Soul.
Jokes aside - I am desperate to find a way for this mod to be loaded last in engine's order by default.
