Is there a way to turn off the hyperspace animation? It was really cool the first 10 times I saw it but... it's old. Is there any way to turn it off?
You'd rather just count 3...2..1...static loading screen? Thats so anti-climatic for what is a trademark of SW spaceflight. And anyway, the animantion is just about 3-5 seconds of your time and you don't get attacked during it (you did in beta for a while, till that was tweaked)...
I don't think there is a way to disable it, but it isn't a big pain to sit through

If you hit your booster right before you get to 100%, you will still be moving during the actual jump rather than come to a complete standstill.

I'd rather have the Hyperspace effect while the data loads instead of the loading screen. And before someone says it couldn't be done, it's been done for years in AC with the portals, so yeah, it can.
The only time I could see this being a problem is on MP Ships, I can see how different load times could cause problems with clients knowing who is where, but since you are popped to viewing the cockpit during hyperspace anyway, it probably wouldn't make that big of a difference.

well not sure if this is a bug, but on TC i can hit my boost AFTER the 5..4..3..2..1 countdown starts, i comes in handy, but i dont think i could do this before, so it might be a bug who knows
