bug with the map, an unknown blue dot

[kelmenwong]

i know blue dot on map means my ppl, but i noticed there is always another (bigger) blue dot near my main squad, usually it's near the furthest sq member.
it doesn't move.
i used to ignore it.

but now it's giving problem, as at time, there is sq member stuck in somewhere, as i tend to ignore blue dot, i just move on.
only when like moved so far then found out 1 member is stuck in departure point.

now, how to fix/remove this unknown blue dot?

on a load there is a checkbox/toggle for reset squad positions, I'd try that. I might have my dots mixed up (I'm also running a couple mods, dark UI and some Nicer Maps so it may be different) but I thought blue dots were actually AI NPC like mercanaries who left the party

Can you take a screenshot of the blue dot?

[kelmenwong]

reset squad work best when u don't have multiple squads and all ur ppl are at separate locations as intended.

when u have a base, and ur exploring team is somewhere far else, using the reset squad is a shock! (bad)

i scaled down the size and color dept.
the weird blue dot may not obvious in the screen shot. it's at the bottom right of the city icon.

i pan my camera toward that dot to show that that's no friendly name at there, like 1 of my ppl is at the dot location.

in term of mods, the closer i can think of related to map is

Do you have any mercs, friendly raids or raids that may spawn an ally helper squad?
Could be that they tried to spawn but got stuck inside a building or something.

Iirc allies are green dots?

nothing to do with ally. ally is green, my issue is blue dot

Yeah, had a vague memory of end of contract mercs reverting to blue and some slaves that were freed by player but not joiners also being blue but probably just mis-remembering.

Allies are green and neutral are white so my bad, so long since i've played against raids.

today i played a session without this weird problem!

the difference is i don't use f4 speed, as game doesn't work well at times, like follower in squad stop following, only resume when i put game speed on normal.

using f3 speed working so far so good, and also without the weird blue dot.
now i can rely on the map to chk stuck member.
