I'm a casual player, but I really like this game. The only thing that bothers me is this [Hold tab to skip] button that's always popping up at the bottom. I understand I can hit tab to skip. Is there a way to stop this from showing up?
Thank you!

It ruins some potentially beautiful screenshots in space. People demanded the ability to skip travel sequences, and this is the result. There's no way to remove it, though it disappears after a moment, if you don't input any commands.

If you push the tab button, it'll go away.

It might the same thing that happened in ME2, when you landed on the stations it showed a reminder on how to access the map, it stopped showing the message, if you pushed the button for the 1st time.
I'm on console, and am not bothered by a small message in the comer of the screen telling me how to skip though dialogue or a brief message on how to skip the space travel, but I guess it could be annoying on a smaller screen for pc players : / but I don't think there is a way to remove the message, without pushing the button, at least once, in the game. If it still shows the message in every dialogue and space travel, after you pushed it for the 1st time, it's unlikely there is a way to remove it unless someone creates a mod for the pc version.

If you push the tab button, it'll go away. I got to admit, that one made me chuckle.  Well done sir. @op: I agree. In general, I hate excessive interface pop-ups. Please dear devs (of any game) either give us a manual (maybe even in-game or as pdf, no printing required) or show us stuff once in the tutorial level and then leave us alone with those pesky immersion breaking pop-ups that insult our intelligence by assuming we cannot remember 10 buttons to press. Thanks! |

This is an example of why we can't have nice things.

Thnaks! Yeah it's just unnecessary after the first few times and gets in the way of what are otherwise really nice space scenes. |

Well, it's not small, it's not in the corner, and it's not brief. Lol. It pops up about one second after I start traveling and doesn't go away until I reach the destination. |

This game is drowning in HUD and overlays. I'd love to have tutorials limited to a single event, and to have the option to turn off HUD elements. The Nomad HUD is the worst. Which kind of idiot is going to forget how to operate the Nomad?

Can't you hit a button and the HUD disapears for Screenshots? I press that button sometimes by accident.

Which kind of idiot is going to forget how to operate the Nomad? You mean you didn't find it useful to be told to change between 4WD and 6WD after playing the game for 90 hours? |

We don't even need it for this purpose. The back of the Nomad lights up orange, and it sits higher, when in 6WD. That HUD is useless |

The "press _" is always present during travel. You can't always get a good angle while locked in orbit. It's a minor annoyance, I know, but an unnecessary one. For comparison, the skip HUD isn't present during every single conversation. Now that everyone is aware of the travel skip option, they should hide it. |

I like to watch the travel, it feels immersive, but it's nice to have the option. It would be better if it was invisible but it's not something that I loose sleep over, esp cause it made a lot of players happy.

Well done sir.
