Menu option to hide "Server Overloaded" message
I'm on a bare metal dedicated gaming server, the server runs just fine and when it does bog down it's obvious via combat / enemies which is rare. A message popping up every 2-5 seconds at the bottom left is unnecessary and feels quite intrusive. It's distracting, and doesn't give any value. Everyone I've played with says it's annoying.
There should be a toggle in the menu to hide this message. Simple solution, if someone does want to see that message (which I can't imagine anyone would other than a server provider doing some debugging) then they can just enable it.

I also have the 80% idle usage on my server installed in proton on a debian machine.
We need server pause when noone is online! -

MrSimmonsSrYes! This message seems to come up quite regularly for me with only two people on the server, and the server is running fine. It happens most often when we are in different parts of the world, but often when we're both just chilling in our base. The server dev team really needs to review and tweak the code that determines when this message is shown, as I see it all the time when the server is actually running fine.
And a toggle to just turn it off would be even better. It is definitely an intrusive message and everyone I play with also finds it most annoying, especially when the server seems to be running with no problems.
Thanks! Awesome game!! -

Mathew W.I agree hiding it or making the message much smaller/icon based would be nice, but there needs to be some real optimization on the server. There’s no reason why the server should utilize 80% of resources when no one is even online. It immediately tops out on CPU utilization when players join.
So hiding the message would just be putting a bandaid over the much larger issue.
