Pipe visualization--add to interface menu to disable

[alden-winters]

Some may like it, but I don't.

Can we make it so that this visualization feature is also able to be disabled similar to other ones?

Many thanks

Its crazy that such an intrusive feature is always on.

First time when i accidentally moved cursor on pipe for 1 millisecond i was think my gpu/display is broke and i saw artifacts.

I would like to bring this topic back into view because the issue is still not solved.
There is not option, no mod and not even a hidden option to disable the constant, automatic pipe visualization on mouseover.
It is extremely obnoxious to have the screen constantly flash all pipes from a single cursor movement over any pipe.
There needs to be an option to turn this of or turn it into a proper toggle.

If I was to add a setting (hidden or otherwise), there are 2 scenarios where the visualization happens: on mouse-over of a fluid entity, and when holding a fluid entity in the cursor.

It's unclear if a setting would disable both, or just one, or if there would be a desire for two settings.

Personaly i would be happy being able to turn the entire feature off.
I do not need nor want any of it.

Idealy it would be a toggle for the feature as a whole.
If off, nothing happens ever, if on mouseover and building is shown.

Integrating the toggle into Alt-mod is not a solution, since i have that on permanently.

Ok, I added a hidden config option for 2.1.
