Is there any way to stop these annoying lag messages?

These are extremely annoying and don't mean anything, especially when trying to use advanced build mode. Is it possible to get rid of them?

Crusade made a mod to move it below the ABM controls.

Sadly you can not find this by searching for "server answer" or "build mode high ping"...

There's also a thread somewhere explaining how to change the config lines yourself, which is what the "mod" is.

It is meaningful though, it means the game didn't save, so be sure that wasn't the last message you got before you shut the game down or you're going to lose your work.

It's this section, in the XML file:
<PopupMessage>
<BasicValues>
<PopoutTimeInSec>0.3</PopoutTimeInSec>
<DistFromTop>614</DistFromTop>
<DistFromRight>-10</DistFromRight>
<StackedDistanceX>200</StackedDistanceX>
</BasicValues>
</PopupMessage>

This is the line the "mod" changes, and the value it changes it to (I forget default): <DistFromTop>614</DistFromTop>

I believe the thread you're talking about is this one .
To recap, config file is in the directory /Starmade/Starmade/data/config/gui and is called Hudconfig.cfg . You can make all of the popup messages appear at any point on or even off screen and change the time for which they are displayed. I personally have it set to a TimeInSec of 0.1, which equals 1 second of message displayed, and the next two options as 120 and 1670 (playing on a 1080p display) which makes the popupmessages appear just below the Shield and energy readout of a selected entity.
You can use a program like notepad or notepad++ to edit the files.

To remove our notifications from sight, you can set the offsets <DistFromRight>-300</DistFromRight> . This puts the element 300 pixels right of the right side screen edge.

I honestly don't see why the default is to put the unmovable screen on top of the main control panel in the first place.

But...but...but....how dare you apply common sense & logic to this!
