Option to Turn off Building Hints

Being able to turn off Good.Bot was a helpful update, but we also need the option to turn off Building Hints, the large grey box that appears on the right side of the screen and obstructs your vision while building.


It would also be a nice UI update to have a clearer warning for when the player Inventory is full, and when Oxygen/Hydrogen/Suit Power/Visor is open warnings are flashing; a big icon right in the middle of the screen just above center would be great...

The 3rd HUD mode is "no hints", that hides the block/tool descriptions and its state is saved to config.

I guess it would be useful if you could pick the HUD mode in the game settings aswell.

Yeah, but that also hides the HUD too- I need the HUD visible because I'm building and switching blocks.


What I don't need is a giant box/ image on the right side of the screen showing what block I have selected and telling me its life-story. We can toggle off the Cross Hair, and the Block rotation hint, now we need the option to turn off Building hints completely in the menu without having to hide everything else on screen too.

Are you asking to hide the entire block info, including the components list?

If not, you should really try cycling the HUD and see how it looks as there are 2 modes that are visible and one is without the block/tool description texts.

If yes... well, why is that an issue in this update? They even made it smaller than it was before, I'm just curious.

I know what it looks like when toggling Tab between the 3 modes. There is full, reduced, and everything hidden; hiding the Block info box on the right of the screen completely is what we need without having to hide the entire HUD too.

Reducing it isn't all that helpful, having to hide the whole HUD even less so- just to be clear:


BIG BOX, RIGHT SIDE OF SCREEN WITH BLOCK INFO = WANT TO GET RID OF ENTIRELY WITHOUT HAVING TO HIDE THE WHOLE HUD. NEED A CHECK-BOX IN THE GAME OPTIONS MENU, WHERE 'HIDE CROSSHAIR' AND 'HIDE BLOCK ROTATION HINTS' IS LOCATED.

Just make it so we can have it like it was before you added this annoying feature.

Bump- it's difficult to film video in SE when you have that giant box on the right hand side of the screen with useless info cluttering your view, can we get that check-box to turn it off please? Still waiting- same with the red Experimental mode warning that refuses to stay hidden.
