Hello @mmlhoe sorry to hear you are having this issue, have you tried to verify files integrity on steam? does this issue happens just sometimes or all the times you play with USA? does it only happen to you when playing USA?

Well your Levy is a special ability in USA, so if you look over the right side of your minimap, you will see the icon.

Clicking the icon will only take me to the towncenter or outpost without doing anything.

YOu had another post where you said u had mods enabled, does this happen with or without the mods…

6

It happens without any mods

Hi @everyone, this issue is caused by enabling and disabling data mods without restarting the game; we call this ‘hot-reloading’. Another area affected by this is the Hausa & Ethiopian Livestock Market and cattle which will lose their resource exchange icons if a data mod is enabled & disabled.

It is being tracked now. :slight_smile:
