You mean the particles flying around, the space dust? It is probably to give the game a sense of reality, but I agree, I could do without them, cause they become stripes and not dots when game is lagging, and it is obstructing the visibility in a disturbing way, have also been feeling they causes more lag.

When in lag, the dots are the least of your worries.
And if you are lagging that bad, why are you even trying to play right now?
It takes a lot of lag (FPS down to 1 or 2) for my dots to become lines and get in the way. otherwise, they react just fine, even at 9 FPS, which is 3 times shorter than normal gameplay.
that said, i think the dots contribute to lag in a significant way and we should have a "no space dust" button.

they are just flying in the way, so not getting the point off it. and when they are gone, yes, only 0.01 procent less lag, but still... but good idea of a button with: disable space dust

I agree with mereds idea there should be a button in options that says "Disable Space Dust" or "Clear Debris" which would make the screen completely clean of those annoying white dots and weird winds >.> You should see the debris in Prosperus ;p

Yea, there should be button to remove space dust/debris. Technatoria has huge amount of dust flying around and it causes mega sized lag if you stay long on Techna core (center of the map).
