Orbit lines toggle control broken after Type 8 Update

No.
Too tired atm for that. Will do tomorrow. Unless you would be so kind and do it for me. Feel free to use my video link as proof.
ey, no kinkshaming!
I really dislike the new orbit lines.... I think they are way too prominent and ruin the immersion, being more prominent than the HUD and even overwhelming the planets...
I've always toggled them off before too as already with the thinner lines, I found them immersion breaking... Now it's kinda worse and even more so that I can't toggle them on and off with the bug, when fuel scooping or skimming planets...
Totally broken IMO... They were fine before for me being jagged even.... Now it looks like I'm playing an 80's arcade game. lol.
But that's just me...

Well, it kinda is actually, just all grown up now with a lot of flaws. Just like people...

Can confirm and voted on the tracker for a fix
Hooray \♡/
...and as someone who prefers the lines switch off... this is mildly irritating..... so perhaps I'll rage-quit and uninstall the game...

...okay, so I've rage-quit, uninstalled, reinstalled and yet the issue still remains!?!
What gives!?
....I'll be penning an open-letter any day now.
Yeah I voted for the issue: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/65846
I used to always hide them but now I can't and they don't even work properly...!

I had to switch them on to see the issue...
Thankfully after jumping they were gone again.
Hopefully they will get some love for the next patch, they are a bit of a nusiance now!

TBH - this is one of those QoL issues that shouldn't be too much of a drag... however.......... IT (somehow) IS!!!!
(ymmv)
I don't bother switching the orbit lines off, I just keep them on at all times. But I have noticed a couple of occasions when the exclusion zone of a body will become "displaced" from where it is supposed to be.
Or carried away from stellar body, to be "frozen" on screen. DSS/Scanner mode view also have similar issue with orbit lines, where when zooming into an object, orbit lines remain "frozen", and when scanning system with 50+ stellar objects, it can almost obscure view to point where its hard to tell whenever wich orbit lines are correct and ones that got bugged, becasue each zoom causes current orbit lines being carried to new view, and more zooming in and out goes, then more orbit lines are present on view.
Bit annoying, but good thing that jumping out will reset all oddities.
Added my vote/report to the issue tracker. I had refrained from doing so earlier as I expected a hotfix shortly after the update, since to me this was an obvious dev “oops!”. I guess I misjudged the attention of the developers. Has there even been an acknowledgement?
Come along Frontier, this is surely a straightforward fix to an irritating bug.
