Is there a way to hide the pole indicators? I've tried the UI toggle keys ctrl+u, ctrl+h, ctrl+i, as well as pressing space, but none of them seem to affect it. If there's no current way to do it, it would be nice to add it to the toggle ui key binding. It looks rather strange having a giant N or S when trying to take "cinematic" screenshots for desktop backgrounds and such.
Not sure about any way to toggle them in-game. But they're handled by particle system, so you can easily remove them completely: Open this directory: /media/pa/effects/specs Find "pole_north.json" and "pole_south.json" files and open them with any text editor. Replace contents of both files with this string: Code: {"emitters":[]} Save them After you restart game these indicators won't appear anymore.
The "cinematic" mode hides them (and all the other AR effects). Maybe there should be an option for toggling the north/south pole effects? And I just noticed a bug where the orbital shell appears in cinematic mode.
