Flickering Text
Original comment: "All text for the trackbuilder that remains on-screen flickers. Framerate usually somewhere around 90-120, simspeed 1.0, example here[i.imgur.com], note that the "track created" text doesn't flicker, maybe because it is momentary and fades after a time, while the other lines are being given constant 'refreshing' or something? I'm not sure how hud text is done"

To answer other questions: I do use several plugins usually, but the issue persists without them running (launched without plugins).

Oh, and not linux, Windows. I'll be offline for a while now but I will try without other mods when I'm on next.

Alright, with no other mods at all, the flickering stops. So it seems the issue is some sort of mod conflict. Ain't bothered to track down which mod is causing it but it seems like this mod itself is doin just fine actually.

I can probably track down which causes it, can you send sandbox_config.sbc (or its <Mods> section) from the save file that had flickering? :}

It's not a short modlist, but sure, have at it if you like!

Also a few of them are mods that I use as like.. folders. Setting a certain collection of mods as dependencies to an empty container mod, to use like presets. I think the dependencies are listed here too..

I loaded up all those mods and it still doesn't flicker :/

Maybe one of them spammed notifications when loading your specific world? Can you send the world too? =) You can DM it if you don't want it public, either add me on steam or @m_digi on discord.

Sorry Digi I was busy for a few days. So I loaded up the same world today and the flickering has stopped...?

So uh, not sure what to say xD I can still send the world if you like, but I think you scared the bug off at this point!

Unrelated but since I have your ear already, I'd like to make a small suggestion: would be nice to have a way to change the 'style' of track after creating it. Maybe only when in creative mode if you think it necessary. But while designing something, sometimes you want to try a few different tracks on, and it can be slow to keep removing and re-creating a track.

I'll add that to the TODO list =)
