Can you delete/edit a word on the galaxy map through the editor?

Post by whotookmyusername112 »

I'm trying to create a galaxy through the editor but can't delete the random titles to places/nebulae/locations on the galaxy map

"Desolation Moon"
"Ystai Arm"
"Iara Corridor"

etc.

I zoom in on the word but there's nothing to edit or delete. Its as if it's part of the background.

No, there's no way to delete these at the moment. Hopefully, that will change.

This is another example of 'extended' moddability of this expansion.[&:]
