Description

Only noticed this in 1.4.1, but when I go into the tracking station I notice intermittent (nasty word in programming, I know) flickering of the boarders and buttons within the tracking station. The timing is seemingly random but isn't necessarily linked to mouse movement or where you move the camera. I've reduced the view to one icon type (ships or stations) and see the same. It isn't even easy to reproduce after a while. Seems more common within the first few minutes of loading the screen. I use ship icons for any vessel with maneuvers since we don't have any other filter for those yet and station or base icons for vessels waiting in orbit or landed just so I can easily track the maneuver timing. Most of the flickering seems to be when using the ship icon with all the maneuvers listed. After several shifts in focus between different ships and planets, the flickering seems to stabilize.

I recently had some debris that should have been orbiting Eve but was listed as landed on the sun and it was causing hanging in the application after I deleted them from the tracking station. One by one I had to delete the debris, then kill the task with Task Manager and reload the game to get to the next until they were all gone. I don't know if this is related or not, but the flickering has been around for several days I'm sure of. I've attached a copy of my most recent Persistent file for analysis and testing in case there's something wrong with some of the save data causing this glitch.

No mods, no DLC (yet).
