In the last FS update the visual representation of your camera view on the mini-map and world map was changed up, and whilst I kind of prefer the new shape of the cone, it's too transparent. Usually if I need a quick idea of what cardinal direction I'm pointed in, I just gloss over the mini-map; now, I have to squint hard and lean in, and if the map textures are willing, I can eventually maybe see it if I wiggle my camera a little. Yuck - I haven't got around to that upgrade yet. Isn't there any way to change that. I can't tell crap from that mini-map Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does get slightly better if I change to terrain textures instead of world map textures, but then it kind of looks like something out of Runescape and lose sight of any infrastructure. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah I've turned off objects from showing up on the minimap. It gets a bit too cluttered with all those grey boxes overlaying the map texture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auntiemisha Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 NEW PET PEEVE - Accidentally double-clicking on top level folder (non system) and it tries to attach HUNDREDS OF ITEMS to my avatar! OK this is sort of user error but there should be some kind of safeguard / popup warning "You are about to try and attach more attachments than allowed. Try something else"! Now I have to wait for the gazillion messages of "You can't attach multiple objects to one spot." I know, I made one slip of the finger and now I wait and wait. Arg this is what I get for trying to sort my inventory near bedtime. At any rate I'm amused as well as annoyed. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniMapShowPropertyLines in the debug settings. --- And my own peeve for the last few weeks. Flickr's "awards" from some groups, which are nothing, but the endless spam of images (even worse if it's gifs) making comments unreadable there. I have been making Ublock filters to make it more bearable, and it works, but it's still super annoying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, or just by right-clicking the minimap - but as someone who flies/drives/sails a lot, property lines are pretty good to see! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kali Wylder Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 I am so peeved with Google's power to show me ads on my phone, and so frustrated that none of the pop up blockers work. It's my damn phone and I don't want to see ads when I'm trying to use it! Turning off the personalized ads is worse. Even after I remove the search bar (which only allows Google's search engine) I still get these time wasting teaser articles that are designed just to keep you scrolling through their ads when ever I swipe to the right on my phone. Argh!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, they've been there a long time. It sounds as though they may have came on as default for some though, but I already had them on before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowan Amore Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Maybe not a peeve exactly but an amusement? I've seen quite a few merchants lately using tiny headed avatars in their ads. Just makes me shake my head... 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except for the mismatch in head/body size and type, the art is usually pretty nice. *Edit to add* It's like they use one artist for the heads, and another for everything else.

CharlotteStargazer Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Today has been a crappy day, all due to people and technology. I hate iMacs, with everything I have. iMacs can suck things I can't say here. I have to use one for work and I swear if it hadn't been for the fact it's not technically or legally mine, I'd have got over my fear of heights and tossed it from the highest window in the city, put it all back together and tossed it again. I'm not a huge fan of pc's right now either. And people...don't get me started on them. I am so glad it's Friday. I wish I still didn't have to deal with people, even family. Hopefully a night's sleep will help. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I found a solution that will work for us both. I placed an urban jungle filler building over my parcel, which kind of fits the theme of a huge ad, and the neighbors across the street along with a GTFO hub nearby. I then set the physics to phantom. On the inside, I arranged a 3D Environment 360 Skybox to fit within my parcel. It is not a perfect solution, but I did not want to just setup privacy screens that would be unsightly to my neighbors. I will look for another filler building that is smaller later on, and does not stick out as much, but for now this works.
