Is there a way to stop station budget updates?

Post by oli4uk »

Having a way to set managers budget, have them send you excess, and not update you every five minutes,would be awesome. I have a few stations now and the updates happen literally seconds apart when I'm in SETA, meanwhile as the budget update kicks me out of SETA it triggers a bug, so I have to get out of my seat, and reseat myself, to enter SETA again.

TLDR, love having managers send me money, the updates however are pointless, and trigger bugs.

I'm not in-game at the moment so can't check to verify, but there are a lot of checkboxes in the global orders section of the menus (while in-game, not from the main menu, bring up the map and go to the same place as you would to change your empire name, logo, or default ship color, or see your inventory. About half way up/down the vertical group of icons on the left is one for "Global Orders" or some such. Look to the lower part of the right half of the screen for this list of checkboxes.

I am not certain, but I rather suspect that one of them, if un-checked (the default for all of them is enabled I think) will disable the notification that annoys you. Good luck, I hope it's there.

That funnily enough stops a lot of the updates in the (useful) text update screen on the left, but people will still send you the video updates on the right that are constantly causing issues within the game.
