Shared Faction/Coop Map Symbols
Teammates can view my symbols, but theirs look like missingtexture
Hello,

I love Shared Faction Map; it's absolutely essential for me and my friends in Co-op.

But there are three bugs I've run into while using the mod.



BUG #1: Missing textures on certain symbols

My friend can view my symbols just fine, but when he adds certain symbols to our faction map, it shows up on my screen as a checkerboard-looking missingtexture.

To troubleshoot, we added all possible symbols to the map for comparison. (I drew in black, he drew in red)

My view - https://files.catbox.moe/tl6pol.png
His view - https://files.catbox.moe/838abs.png

My map gets updated after he close his map.

This missing texture patterns occurs only for certain symbols (shown in the above images).

Some maybe-relevant details:
- I'm hosting the dedicated server (GOG version) on the same computer that I'm playing the game from
- My character is an admin, and my friend's is a regular player. However, disable all the admin powers on my account whenever I login



BUG #2: No instant update on adding symbols

Our maps don't get instantly updated when the other person adds a symbol. The Player 1's map only updates when Player 2 has:
- Closed their map
- Moved a symbol
- Removed a symbol



BUG #3: Multiple people using map deletes progress

Additionally, if Player 1 interacts with their map while the Player 2 is adding symbols, all of Player 2's symbols since the last shared map update get deleted.

For example, if Player 1 does any of the following:
- Closes map
- Opens map
- Moves symbol
- Removes symbol
then Player 2's progress since the last shared update will be deleted.
