+# Giga + Age of Wonder Compatibility Patch — "hide the filter button" edict
+# A free, perpetual toggle. While active, has_edict = compat_hide_megatab is true,
+# and the filter button's button_effects (common/button_effects/zzzz_compat_megatabs.txt)
+# fail their `potential`, so the on-screen button disappears. Toggle off to restore.
+# The filter setting itself is unaffected; it just can't be changed while hidden.
