Hey, I am unsure whether this belongs here but it's the only thread I could find that would 'seem' like a question such as this belongs here, anyway. Since the last major patch, I've noticed in DED complexes, deadspace sites and quite few random areas/Mission areas, in my main window where I see my ship and the world around me, objects such as 'Debris, Broken Engine Parts, some types of NPC Lookout Towers, some rock formations and all manner of unimportant crap is filling the screen like a celestial in the form of a white, corner segmented square.

At first I didn't mind, but some mission areas and deadspace areas are FILLED with such objects, cluttering up the screen and making it look just ugly, rather than see the world, I see lots of unimportant nonsense amongst things like rats, wrecks etc.

I've fiddled with my overview settings for AGES and can't turn the damn things off, I performed a reset and nope, still there, I've tracked down the problem to the bracket settings, so messing with those DOES remove the annoying debris, but it then removes every other marker on the screen to, some get rid of the markers for drones in space, others remove things like asteroid belts and yet more just clean out the entire screen of markers.

I can't for the life of me figure this out, does anyone have a tip for managing brackets, I found one bracket setting 'General' which more or less solves it but it removes seeing drones, which is a pain when you're trying to find them at a pinch when they normally show up as green icons.

Thanks for reading.

I dont understand why this doesnt get more comments, but yes I was trying to find a solution to this too. But failed in every way. In some PvE stuff I do its a real hazzle beside it looks ugly as ****. I want to be able to remove it from the brackets but I was not successful whatever I tried. I cannot afford to not see drones so this is not a solution for me.

I was for example removing LCO from a overview profile and then loading it into the bracket slot but LCOs were still visible in space which makes no sense at all.
