This occurs with no mods enabled (although I first encountered it using Factory Planner, which uses tick_paused to pause the game when its GUI is open).

What did I do?

• Enter map mode and zoom in on radar-covered area far enough to see things

  

  Map view of radar at SW corner of player coverage, tick_paused=false.png (475.22 KiB) Viewed 809 times

• In the console, run

  Code: Select all

  /c game.tick_paused=true

What happened?

• After exactly 10 seconds (as close as I can tell), radar coverage drops out and map view turns to fog of war

What did you expect to happen?

• Radar coverage to remain as normal

This seems more radar-related than map-related, as the area revealed near the player doesn't turn to fog of war. After setting tick_paused back to false, radar coverage returns within a second (but with a long enough delay to be noticeable).

This happens every time for me; minimal (sandbox) save attached.

Tehnically not a bug, though I will agree that in my own experience it is not what I would expect

Ah, understood. Definitely was nit-picky, and at least Factory Planner's GUI covers most of the screen anyway in its case; I just found it a bit jarring. Thanks!
