District outlines and highlights patch 1.1.0
When I started a new game in utopia mode to test patch 1.1.0, something felt odd to me.
There was this thick dotted line around the main district.
After I placed my first three residential districts I did take note of the new outline feature.

Never did the district outline feel so prominent before.
I understand that it is a well-received feature from the standpoint of visibility and management of a very large and dense city, but I think it needs adjustment and toggles.

Now district outlines pop in instantly and flicker.
An information not needed when the mouse course just moves to another part of the city.

A delay of one to three seconds would stop the flicker.
A toggle option to return to classic mode would also be nice.

What do you think?

Haven't gotten to home yet to try new patch out, only tomorrow, but I can imagine this is annoying and toggling + small delay could be nice. 3 seconds is quite a long wait though in reality, when you do need/want it. 0,5 seconds to 1 second should be the ballpark for discussion imo.

in my game, this district outlines sometime disappear and reappear randomly when i select a district, enter build mode, or enter overlay view mode (4-9, ALT). this is extremely hard to see if like you have 2-3 of same type of districts stick together like red industry districts.

this is either bug or idk what it is, new feature? pretty annoying

Honestly, having tried it out now in practice, I like it.
