    I've noticed sometimes when I'm working on a map, and I change the underlying images, sometimes the native player breaks.  I think it acts like it's still using the old fill map.  What's weird is I can clear my browser cache and it doesn't fix it.  In fact I can go to a new browser and it still looks the same.  It seems to clear itself up after about a day.

    Is the fill map cached somewhere?

    Here's the current one.

    Better get it fixed. With those ass-graphics sure won't pass review.

    It's working now, it just seems to take a while to kick in.  weird, but not a showstopper.

    I've been noticing that for years.. For a while I thought it was scenario related, but recently I'm not so sure.  Just as an experiment, try locking and then unlocking the image before updating - I'd be curious if that has any impact.  Also - are you using a Mac by any chance?

    This board did not have any scenarios, so I don't think I can lock/unlock the image.  Also, on a PC.

     

    I'll try to get a screenshot next time.

    I've made a tweak that should fix this problem - the map outline is stored in a cache for an hour (unless it's read again during that interval). The cache wasn't being cleared properly when the board image was updated.

    Awesome!   Thanks Tom!  I'm glad to see you keep an eye on the support threads & jump in with a fix when possible!
