Broken graphics make the game unplayable!

Dear NafFdev,

As you will clearly see from this image below the words I am typing, the level of graphical infidelity has reached immersion-breaking levels of ineptitudinous rediculicity!

Yes I know! Shocking, is it not?!?!

I am somehow expected to believe that this happy little planetoid is going to toddle along its orbit, in a completely straght line, for another couple of miles, or whatever, and then suddenly and without warning, take a sharp right without even bothering to indicate to any following traffic its intention to do so!

I will have you know that I am no slouch when it comes to the intricate workings of physics, having tripped over my own foot several times in the past and fallen, predictably, to the ground on each and every occasion! I have also taken the liberty of conferring with a notable expert on the subject, in this case, my cat, and we have found ourselves in total and unequivicabubble agreement that orbits should be roundly curved in a disculous and circularatory fashion.

This will not stand, I tell you! Absolutlely NOT STAND!!!!

I have forthwith started uninstallation proceedings, with the full and unintelligible intention to take this matter further. YES! I will be writing a formal letter of complaintinous and accusatory drivel to my MP! Furthermore, I will be closing my Steam account, seliing my PC, cancelling the internet and disowning my own children!!! I expect that, under the obviously embarrassing circumstances, the so-called Mr Braben will be returning his clearly undeserved O B E Kenobi, and letting her gracious majestical see that it is recycled over to someone more deserving of its honourousness!

All those in favour of an end to this kind of nonsense can haz all ma stuff!!!

Yours incandescently,

Whenever you trip over your own foot, it proves the right angle orbit of the Earth. Otherwise, the Earth would be an odd shape, like a globe or something.

So, you're selling your PC? I offer $20.00 cold hard cash. I'm good for it, really. Just send the PC and I'll send the money when I get it.

Got any shoes you're done with?

lmao.. A sharp right.. Yeah I've been curious about this too.

Wait until you fly directly onto its Orbit line and start seeing it flickering all over the place due to being a too-low precision calculation result :D

PS.
I bug-reported the "around the corner" as well as "flickering" Orbit lines all the way back in 2014 already for what it's worth.

AFAIK there's currently no workaround to seeing Orbit lines going "square corner" except to turn them off (Hotkey can be assigned to toggle them as desired).
So if those are very distracting/annoying, try flying with them disabled. I think one can manually toggle them via Right Ship Panel -> Functions as well.

I have not read all this thread before commenting to yours while it was uncluttered by comments to come. But even though I got a laugh from your satire I think it may have missed it's mark on others. But good show old man for your attempt at holding up some of these pesky trolls to the light. Or at least the lighter side.

Cheers ...
