[Bug] PDA icons and text become lighting dependant and unreadable. [42313 Dec-2016]

Necriptos

Subnautica Version - 42313 Dec-2016 (steam latest non-experimental release)
Description - The PDA icons and text become unreadable after using the moonpool for undocking/docking. makes the game pretty unplayable.
Reproduction steps - Undock seamoth from moonpool. might be due to close proximity with surface or lighting plants (creepvines)
Pictures or Video - https://youtube.com/watch?v=Djhtk5hsjhk - Video showing the bug happening.

Only way I found to fix the bug temporarily is to save and reload from main menu, and not reusing the moonpool again.

@Necriptos Adding to it, this happens when docking anything into Moonpool / Cyclops.

You are probably right, didn't have other vehicles to try with.

You get used to it honestly. It annoyed me to no end at first, but after awhile I quit noticing it.

I've found if you verify game integrity on steam it "resets" the UI

Restarting the game will also fix it, until you dock/undock again.

Bump, i so want this to be fixed man, was loving the game so far and this freaking bug is what prevent me from playing it again, please devs

edit : apparently the devs are aware of the bug https://trello.com/c/vuN8QAp5/823-42463-docking-seamoth-into-cyclops-causes-pda-to-break

yeah i can confirm this too. but it hasnt stopped me from playing, it is sometimes difficult to tell what materials are what in the pda. ive mistaken uraninite for titanium several times. granted thats if i put stuff in lockers really fast. didnt realize that docking with the moon pool was causing it, though i will admit it didnt happen untill AFTER i built my moon pool. good to know. just looking at the link posted, i hope the devs dont think its JUST docking with the cyclops... that its moon pool as well, seamoth/prawn docking in general doing it.
