Drawn rectangles disappeared and only reappeared after selecting them again

This happened in a Jumpgate game. All but one rectangle that I had drawn on the Map Layer of a page (using the Rectangle tool) had disappeared after logging in to the game today. When we left off last week, they were all still there. Took me a while to realize I had to select each one of them once to make them visible again (thankfully I realized to use Ctrl+A). I loaded the game in Chrome and Firefox and the problem was the same in both.

The rectangles disappear every time I reload the page (even by switching to a different page and then back without reloading the game). Players don't see them either and they can't make them visible by selecting them because they're my rectangles.

1. What the page looks like when I load it (with some personal info blacked out). This is also what all players now see since they can't select the drawings to make them visible again. 2. What the page looks like after I press Ctrl+A on the Map Layer. 3. What the page looks like after I deselect everything (and what it should normally look like). I also tried copying the game, and the copy has the same problem. Also tried copying the rectangles within the page, deleting the old ones and using the copy, but that had no effect either. Changing their color caused even more of them to disappear.

Hi Aleksi! I would urge you to write this up in a  Help Center Request . This is probably beyond community-level help. You may have to be patient, as Gen Con weekend typically means a reduced crew is available.

I have just encountered the same issue. To me it seems that when there are multiple shapes with the exact same color settings and exact same paths, e.g. copy/pasted shapes or shapes that were drawn using grid-snapping, then only the first of each identical shape on the page is rendered when the page is loaded and the others only appear when they are first selected. The problem appears to be independent of shape tool or layer. I have filed a bug report. A workaround for me was to slightly vary paths or colors where possible, but that doesn't seem like it would work well for your particular page setup...

Has there been any updates with this issue? Its starting to affect my other maps before the bug, im missing a bunch of pieces for the maps I reuse a decent bit along with my players home base and I am hoping it gets fixed soon

Having the same issue just using the line tool on my map. Very rarely I can get some lines to stick around, but I can't find any rhyme or reason as to why. I made a copy of the game to experiment, and deleting dynamic lighting layers, deleting most of the map, deleting the old lines, none of it has any effect. Players can see the lines I draw live, but they disappear again when I refresh the page.  As Thomas said, the lines are all the same color and were created using grid snapping. It's likely that many of the lines are the same length as others on the page. I only had one object that was copy/pasted, and the second one is missing as well. Update: Changing the color of the lines did seem to work. Selecting the line and changing the color back then caused the line to disappear again.

My games appear to be suffering from the very same issue, as described by OP. So far it has not been fixed. 

I am also suffering from this. I hope it can be resolved soon, as the draw tool is quite vital to how I make maps

I am going to bump the thread up, as the issue remains.  I have already reported this bug, so if you have some time, you can report it too. Maybe this will increase the priority of the fix. 

I've reported it, they said they are looking into it but its been so long and I just want to be able to make maps easier again 😭

Any updates on this? 

Are they going to fix this issue? I use this for map making and all my maps are bugged, its been like this for over a week. This is getting pretty irritating

Also experiencing the same issues, incredibly annoying and hope its fixed soon - I've tried differant layers, browsers, clearing my cache turning off extensions all to no success

I think it has something to do with their drawing functions that fails to draw copied objects. My best guess is that something was changed in how maps are stored that caused this.  Also, it has almost been 2 weeks and no fix in sight - which is plain sad. 

Jumping in on this thread to say I've been having this same issue for at least 3 weeks now, maybe longer. At first I was dismissing it as a me-issue, but with this many others having the same problem it clearly isn't. It also doesn't matter what computer I use for it, same issue, same boxes, same maps, even on a duplicate copy of the entire campaign.

Hey folks! I have received notice that this should be fixed. Sometimes with code pushes, you need to log out and back in, but please report here if this is working or not.

Seems to be working for me now, all the copy-pasted rectangles are visible again when loading the page.
