Large red, green, and blue axis lines coming out of all grids?

Just logged into my world today and for some reason theres these huge axis lines coming out of all my grids? I can't interact with them and dont know how to get rid of them. Ive replicated the world and checked all mods but cannot reproduce them. Theyre really annoying and if anybody knows whats happening or how to get rid of them it would be much appreciated 🙏

figured out what mod was causing it! It was updated 3 days ago so I assume it may have enabled some option in my world that I was unaware of. regardless the issue is gone now. Thank you for your help!

Hi, it may be the option named "Show Grid Pivot" in Info Tab of Terminal that adds those 3 lines :
Green is UP
Red is RIGHT
Blue is FRONT

+
Grid Exporter Mod made to transfer SE1 creations to SE2 do something similar, too :

OR
You forgot to read the Mods descriptions and test all Mods one at a time in testing worlds before using and that is why you don't know what they can do ??

Oh! You could create a testing copy and remove one Mod at a time in that copy to help you pinpoint the Mod adding the Grid Pivot.

How to create a "Testing copy" :
1 - Select your save.
2 - Click the "Save as" button on the left.
3 - Change the save name to create a "Testing copy".

Note
-> NEVER test Mods in your Favorite/Original save, because some Mods delete and replace important codelines in the save files that are not added back in when removing the Mod, that is why it is very very important to test Mods in other world or a testing copy.

I went into my grids and it says that grid pivot is off. I'll try the testing copy to see if it is in fact a mod causing it! Thank you

I don't play Modded much so not sure which Mod, well only if really needed but may be something like "BuildInfo Mod" cause it adds a lot of options.

it just confuses me because I created an entire new world with the exact same mods and they weren't showing up. Maybe a mod updated and messed up something in that world specifically but I'll still test it regardless

Probably an option one of the Mods you use add to the game.
