[0.17.59] Loading a save and then opening the map will cause a spectacular map update show

Post by Kirk »

I'm unsure what to make of this, other than that I reckon it was not intended. So here's a report.

1. Load the attached game.
2. Immediately press M.
3. Observe the party.

Ignore the name, I just didn't like the lack of nearby oil XD

Ah, so if I were to save this game in the new version it would no longer occur.

Still a cool show though (already made the gif):

It depends what triggers the "refresh the chart data". We add it from time to time when we change chart logic so updating the game can cause it. Sometimes mods add it if they do the same.

Once it finishes it won't happen again in the same version unless a mod does it or unless you do it via:

Code: Select all

/c game.player.force.rechart()
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
