Hello, I dislike how long the "Flying Text"/Item Notification lingers when I destroy an item with right click. If it contains other items(any container, belts, etc.) the text appears for too long and covers up a lot of the screen, especially if I'm deleting a lot of items, preventing me from seeing what's going on and I have to wait until it disappears.

How would I go about changing this?

You can't really prevent it from appearing, but you can either clear them each tick using https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/cla ... ying_texts , though this might make them appear for one tick in certain cases.
Or modify the locale so that it will be empty. The locales are show-diff-normal and show-diff-quality, though there might be other ones. You'd just set it a locale cfg file like this If i remmeber right, empty strings like this are allowed, but if not you can use a space.

I will give the locale a try since it seems easiest, thank you
