:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

An exclamation mark appears in the menu when you start a game or randomly during the game. I don’t see why this would be intended behavior. In previous versions, the exclamation mark only appeared if there was a notification, like an invitation for a multiplayer game.

Tested in single player mode. The exclamation mark appeared directly after starting a Random Map game, went away after I clicked it and went to the Main Menu, and then appeared again after some time.

Yes, same happens to me as well. Just went on google to check if this is something normal in game, as I haven’t noticed it before. It shows up just when you start a game, then i go into lets say “Load game” and go back to my game and that notification disappears.

EDIT: Maybe it as notification of an invite, because I had a message saying i was invited in Lobby. So maybe it shows us that we have an invitation.

I think you are right, I also had an invitation for a lobby. It’s a little bit strange that you see an exclamation mark in a single player game, and nothing special shows up when you click it.

The next issue is that the invitation stays in the list of invitations when I click “decline”.
