Hello

I have a strange phenomenon in my current savegame. The save game is at SOL 1296 and during SOL 1297 the following happens: the blue rotating focus that wraps around the project when clicking on an object is no longer displayed. Likewise, the flashing red light that normally appears when destroying an object above the object is also no longer displayed. If you then save the game and load it again, these two bugs are also present again. If you then load an earlier save, everything is normal again. So this is not a graphics problem, but a different one.

Can you replicate the issue?
Yes, with this saved game I can reproduce the problems on every attempt. There is also no need to wait until SOL 1297. It is enough to pause the game and simply wait about 2:10 (min:sec) for the problem to occur.

I noticed another symptom of the bug. Once the bug(s) are active and an object is selected, a small blue dot will appear near the object after a few seconds. However, only for a split second, which is why it was impossible for me to take a screenshot. I then recorded the whole thing as an animated GIF.
