    I know with the game mechanics, when you kill a pirate, there's the chance he'll drop loot at the spot that his core starts to overheat.

    The problem I'm having, is that this loot is ONLY showing up in build mode, not flight mode so spotting it after the combat is damn near impossible. Other people on the server I play aren't having any trouble.

    I assume it's a graphical glitch, so I'll explain my settings. I'm running A GTX77o, and all the graphics settings are on highest. Texture is set to Default 256.

    Anyone got some advice or settings I could try using?

    It might be because your camera is viewing through glass. Try moving the camera onto the very exterior of the ship. The bug itself is well known, but sadly, as far as I know, there's no easy fix to it.

    The glass bug is one of the oldest bugs in starmade, I think it has been around since glass was coded into starmade.

    It was/is around in any openGL game, that uses transparent textures, and does not draw any items first.
