A few questions about minimap

from Stardock Forums
Hello everyone. Can somebody tell me how does the minimap works after loading the game? Sometimes (or always, not quite sure) influence layouts in minimap are different when I save the game and when I load it. It's the same with starbases and resources - some of them are shown after loading, and some are not. I send a scout in a place where starbase was in my last game, and when I find it, they reappear on minimap. Are they always there, affecting the game in same way like before and just not showing on the minimap? Thanks to anyone who answers...
LOL Sorry for my bad grammar. Happy hollidays from Croatia!

P.S. And when I say "in my last game", I mean in the same game but before last saving - just to be sure you understand.

It is a known bug, due to data not saved linked with influence calculation

I have recognized this as well. I don't know if CariElf is aware of this problem. My workaround is to mark the positions of ressouces. Either with a rally point or manually on a paper.

My method exactly, Walldorf - to put it on the paper. Like old sea captains... :)
