About this mod

Lowers XL Asteroid Draw Distance by over 10x for a large performance increase.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
This mod is recommended to be combined with SirNukes Asteroid Fade In mod; but it is not needed.

How does this work? By editing renderparam_library.xml and replacing 450000 with 30000:

<replace sel="//renderparameters/lodrules/rule[@name='dbglodrule_asteroidxl']">
<rule name="dbglodrule_asteroidxl" range="30000.0" speed="1.0">
<connections>
  <tag name="asteroidxl" />
</connections>
</rule>
</replace>

Set the speed to 0 for a tiny performance boost

Original number is 450000. SirNukes Asteroid Fade has 250 km listed in comments, so Egosoft must have increased it by 200km recently.

Vanilla X4 XL Asteroid range:

<rule name="dbglodrule_asteroidxl" range="450000.0" speed="1.0">
<connections>
  <tag name="asteroidxl" />
</connections>
</rule>
