Summary0013147: Delay on solar map tooltip display disappearing is annoying
DescriptionThe delay on the disappearance of the solar map "tooltip" display (with planetary information, etc.) is a bit annoying, especially when the tooltip triggers because my cursor happened to pass a planet on its way across the screen to a thing I want to click on. I'd rather have the display disappear as soon as the cursor leaves the thing that triggered it. The delay doesn't allow me to properly read the information presented without hovering over the planet or whatever anyway, so I'm not really sure it provides any benefit. (It's possible that this is a personal quirk of mine and that other people benefit from the delay. If that's the case, I'm happy to live with it.)

Thanks!

* The delay on the tooltips disappearing on the solar map is now gone; it was indeed annoying.
** However, part of the purpose there was to keep the tooltips from being so "blinky" late in the game when there are tons of armadas and you are mousing over them.
** The thing is, you almost never need to mouse over an armada; it doesn't tell you much about it, and you can tell the color from looking at it. Anyway, the need for a mouseover there is very rare.
** So! Now the game only lets you get a tooltip for non-planets/outposts while you have the solar map paused (and it tells you this). This actually solves some annoyances I had with trying to mouse over the planet that I was located on, anyway.
