    I'm working on a rather large salvager --it has roughly 180.000 salvage cannon blocks. Problem is that I'm having trouble grouping them together and selecting them with the computer properly. There is supposed to be 3600 rows, but apparently, I made a mistake somewhere, and now there's only 3200 groups. I'd go through the thing and select the proper blocks, if it wasn't for my fps dropping to 1 with all the purple boxes. Is there anyway to disable the purple boxes or at least lessen the impact on my performance?

    Go some spot of the ship where you can see all the cannons (like front of the ship?), then Shift+V to select the groups.

    Oh my God! 180,000!
    If you do not have a quantum super computer, then you try it with 180 blocks (10 rows x 18 blocks or something like that).

    Believe me, it will be very efficient salvager and it will not reduce the performance of your computer.

    Look for this in your settings.cfg
    G_DRAW_SELECTED_BLOCK_WOBBLE = true

    change it to false.

    This should help lol

    @Crusade: I will try out this method. Thanks :3



    @Kazimir Casus: Well, going from 180k to 180 blocks sort of defeats the purpose xD
