I just noticed this as well.  I second the sentiment of it being a small issue, yet highly irritating (especially given how frequently it seems to occur). 

It also happens deterministically for me. I tried basically all the combinations of checkboxes in the options and after each game load, I have no borders (even in cloth map). Given that city borders have a gameplay influence (where your settlers can do their job), this is a bit more than a minor bug.

Stardock, this is *not* how you are supposed to incite us to play Ironman mode!

(OTOH, in cloth map, it could be nice to have our empires fully shaded, like the minimap does, instead of just the border drawn...).

Not only do I experience this bug as well (city borders randomly becoming invisible) but I am also experiencing frequent crashes since my game updated on Steam. It's become virtually unplayable.

Very, very disappointed.

The settlement borders dissaperaing has been around a long time.  If SD actually comes up with a fix for this - might you post it for the rest of us?

We have it reproduced here at Stardock too, we are checking it out. Thank you for the heads up.

would be nice before we have xmas... maybe xmas gift

Certainly annoying. It happens only if you enter main menu after loading a starting a game. The initial one is okay, but if for whatever reason you enter main menu again (to load or start a new game or whatever) it will happen.

So, don't click on main menu again, or restart the game.

Hi, just started playing this game, and I have the same issue. I guess not everyone does, but I reload frequently and this is making the game really awkward as I am still learning how to play. Can Stardock confirm if there is a support ticket open and what is happening?

Cheers
