Is there some way to disable this new automatic ship spinning? I don’t know why exactly but it is very annoying. Especially so if you are idle while doing something else. I realize you can click to stop it, but why?

Have you tried not being afk? Rotating camera only activates after certain amount of time idling in station.

Also the 6 and 9 need lines underneath like pool balls, just in case I…

@Kaylen_Amuman This isn’t that

@Akkar_Kardashev inconsequential nonsense eh? I can’t tell if that was aimed at me or CCP, but I’ll add to this just in case to just say that it annoyed me enough to login to the forum site here with 2FA and find the correct forum to write this request.
