Renders much more dost than it should, unusable.

This worked amazingly until it started rendering incorrectly. Now it is quite noisy on the page and showing way way more whitespace dots than before, overlapping in some areas, not showing properly in other areas, and is no longer useful to me. I have removed it for now, hopefully it works again and I can add it back at some point.
