Option to disable Logistics system storage tooltip

Post by Gammro »

TL;DR
Add an option to the settings to disable the logistics system tooltip because it can get too big to practically make use of.
What ?
When hovering over a logistics system chest, the game shows all the contents of the network it's placed in. I'd like to be able to disable this, preferably as a setting in the UI settings menu. The attachment shows which part of the tooltip I want to be able to disable.
Why ?
Because when there are lots of different items stored on the network, the tooltip gets too big to practically make use of and just creates visual clutter. This can happen in vanilla, but gets more of a problem in modded playthroughs. As you can see in the attachment the tooltip is now about 1400 pixels high, and the rest is cut off because I don't have more pixels on my screen.
A player that knows about the logistics menu with "L" can use this to more handily find specific contents of the network and doesn't need the tooltip. They can play with less visual clutter on the screen if they prefer that.
