After a while, tooltips break and show only variable/function names instead of actual data/values.



I'm have not been able to isolate if there is a certain event that causes it, or if it just happens after X amount of time. I tend to notice it after I have researched several technologies. It does not trigger after 1-2 so it seems to be unrelated to finishing a research.

Restarting the game temporarily fixes the issue.

It's all kinds of tooltips that break,

Those tooltips are a debug option and can be toggled with ctrl + F6 by default. If that key combination doesn't work for you check what control settings -> Toggle GUI style view is set to.

I suspected that! I was trying to figure out if it was a key combo I pressed without knowing about it.

It just happens to be that starting my stream in discord is ctrl+f6. Coincidence!

Thanks.
