actually does work with openstarbound as long as u copy contents.pak from steamapps\workshop\content\211820\2511429674\ into Starbound\mods\ and rename it to whatever like NoHighlightsOnInspectedObjects.pak

Did not work on OpenStarbound

For me on OSB, it seems the config file only works when installed in the mods file manually. I was trying to do the same thing and patching that doesn't work from the workshop.
I should probably just take my mod down because this one has better ratings.

I don't use OSB so I can't really test with it.

My only guess is maby it doesn't like the way I remove the entries or something is overriding my mod?


Just to rule out the asset override possibility, try running the command /eval sb.printJson(root.assetJson("/highlights.config:highlightDirectives.inspected")) in admin mode and tell me what it returns.


As for the former, I could try replacing the directives with blank strings rather than removing them.

I think I originally did that incase if it helps with performance, but nowadays I don't think it was doing much anyways.

Can confirm, does not work with OSB.

This is such an essential visual mod for me, it's nice to not have everything in my vicinity glow at me even after scanning when I'm just holding the scanner around. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work when I use it with OpenStarbound though? I'm not sure why.

It works fine on my end.

If your character is holding up a magnifying glass, that's not the scan tool, it's the starter version that only gives the item's description.

It gets upgraded during the quest where you scan stuff at the outpost.

Is this mod still working, I've came back to the game now and I can't see any highlight on objects when using the inspect tool. I'm playing on a fresh save btw.

Holding down the Alt key highlights interactable objects so that might help with the problem of not being able to use the scanner to find secret buttons with this

You made my life 💓💓💓💓💓
Thanks for you life 🧬

You made my day

Is this mod client side?

Mods don't deactivate achievements.
Infact, the achievement tracker is also moddable, meaning that mods can also change how certain ones are earned.

Will this deactivate achievemets?

god bless

This should be added while downloading the game

bless up

the fact that it took this many years for this mod omfg

I'm colourblind, I desperately needed this, thank you.

i would kill for you. thank you

This is a blessing because I:
1. Hate the fact that it covers the selection outline entirely with REDNESS.
2. Constantly get things I've scanned confused with things I haven't at a quick glance.
3. Am quite annoyed when all I see in the background is red while trying to find things to scan.

This is exactly what was needed! I say this despite the fact that I rarely use mods.

Things I never knew I wanted, but actually desperately, desperately needed. Oh my god thank you. Eat my fucking points!

Time to test this one out.

thx and should solve the frame losing problem :) and i wonder if it compatible with the MM in the other mods ,like FU?

this was a good idea

You have my thanks!

This is another mod that should of been vanilla since day one. Thank you so much for this.

I love you.
