Unrender 3D objects while switching to a fully 2D UI

[Tery215]

it causes severe lag when I use R&D, and it makes a lot of sense in my opinion

I think I understand what you are talking about, and I experience it also. The Research and development screen itself could use some optimizations also.

Comic sans? NOOOOOO!

I don't see what you mean, I think it does unrender everything! Isn't R&D its own flight scene?

[Tery215]

Judging on the amount of unjustified lag, I think it isn't.

I don't think so. AFAIK, it's rendered over the Space Center, perhaps to make switching back out of it faster or something.

It might not even need to switch off the view of the space center. Probably all it would need to do is move the camera down to the surface so it's only viewing a very tiny piece of land. Typically in any game I've played that lags me out like mad, getting as close to the ground as possible and staring at it results in a nice performance improvement.

Ah no wonder it lags so much... Yeah this would definitely be an improvement if it keeps the Space Center loaded...
