Stacked orbit lines are very bright with HDR and Bloom Intensity on

[Clayell]

This is an absolutely ancient issue that has somehow never been reported on github anywhere as far as I could find, yet has been repeated countlessly in the KSP-RO server. When HDR and Bloom Intensity are on, the stacking of Principia's orbit lines cause them to shine like a neon light. Interestingly, the issue does not show up when HDR is on and Bloom Intensity is off, or when HDR is off but Bloom Intensity is on. The effect will get worse when more orbit lines stack on top of each other (see 5th image). This issue does not appear without Principia as patched conic lines do not stack on top of each other. (although, I imagine that if enough orbit lines were somehow stacked on top of each other the issue would show up, but I wasn't able to reproduce this)

Principia:

HDR on, Bloom Intensity Max (although easily visible at the default of 3)

HDR off, Bloom Intensity Max

HDR on, Bloom Intensity off

HDR off, Bloom Intensity off

HDR on, Bloom Intensity Max, Principia orbit lines max (increases with tolerance and steps)

Stock:

HDR on, Bloom Intensity on

HDR off, Bloom Intensity on

HDR on, Bloom intensity off

HDR off, Bloom Intensity off

Honestly, I think it's nothing to do with Principia at all, just with orbital lines in general. I've noticed that the graphics from TWP can have the same problem. Stock just doesn't have many occasions where orbital lines are stacked.

I just noticed that the readme says no Directx 12, which I do have installed. Is it possible that this is a problem with directx?

I forced DirectX 11 with -force-d3d11 in the command line in ckan, and I can confirm that I still get this bug.

steamroller says that DX11 is the default for KSP even if DX12 is installed, unless one overrides it with -force-d3d12.
