Option To Hide The Annoying "Cloud Cover"

from GalCiv4 Forums

I have always been annoyed by the "cloud cover" that seems to appear randomly when you load and play a game.  The screen snapshot below shows an example of what I am talking about.  I believe a recent version provided a toggle switch in the Options that would let you turn this off, but the "cloud cover" is back in 0.91 and I cannot find the option to turn it off again.

If you intentionally removed the option to turn the "cloud cover" off, why?  If it was an accident, please, please, please put it back!

They switched to a slider.  It's not very intuitive what it does, by its description, but here you go friend..

hope this helps, cheers,

Thank you, thank you, thank you!  You are right that "Nebula Opacity" is not a very clear way to describe what it does, but I am glad to be able to set it to 0 and get rid of that annoying "feature".  I understand that some people may find the nebula to be beautiful and like that they add some depth to the display of the cells, but I find them an annoying distraction whose only value is in identifying the cells with black holes in them since the black hole is visible through the nebula.

No problem, I am always willing to help an ally in need, well not always, but this time.
