Came to report same issue

devleondevleon5/28/2025

I tried to reproduce it, but the spheres detection is working fine on my machine. But I know, that it's not working for other users. I don't know how to reproduce it.

I have the exact same problem. Have tried to reinstall Overwolf, the interactive map, clearing cache in %appdata%. Nothing seems to fix it, it's weird because it's _just_ the spheres

archfidoarchfido6/13/2025

I just came here to check if you guys found a solution

devleondevleon6/13/2025

I will take another look next week and update to 1.1

came to report the same issue, but I also noticed that it doesn't show "Normal" nodes in the map either. I disabled "deposits" (generic rock marker) because they were persistent after mining the deposits, and the named resource deposits disappear as expected after mining, but my live map only shows Impure and Pure resource nodes (and Somersloops but not Mercer Spheres as reported by others.) Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you track this down. In the meantime, I've been using a web based map (not promoting, but it was in the official Satisfactory wiki if anyone else needs it) but it only reads the info from whichever save file you upload and you have to upload your latest autosave every time you want to refresh the data.

The other map does show structures, power networks, etc., which I would love to see added to your map eventually. My favorite/#1 request that it has that I would like to see is "dropped items". Useful for finding every last part hiding in the tall grass around crash sites, or the creature parts that dropped when it was killed on the run through the bushes. I know this is a labor of love for both you and the other map creator, so I'm not gonna grab my pitchfork, but maybe you could pick each others brains for how you each implemented certain features? Loving the map, thank you for all you do!

canisceruleancaniscerulean6/19/2025

Just an update, hatchers are also not showing up

canisceruleancaniscerulean6/19/2025

Nvm, just noticed they weren't even in the list.

achilles_rsachilles_rs6/30/2025

Unfortunately it seems this issue is still ive. Unfortunately I've tried nearly everything to get Mercer Spheres to show on the live map but no luck. Has there been any update on tracking down this bug?

devleondevleon6/30/2025

No, I could not reproduce it on my machine

devleondevleon6/30/2025

it works well here and I don't know what's the difference

achilles_rsachilles_rs6/30/2025

Any logs I can provide that may help?

devleondevleon6/30/2025

Not now, thx

devleondevleon6/30/2025

I can check again in a few days

achilles_rsachilles_rs6/30/2025

Thank you!

devleondevleon6/30/2025

It's only the Mercer Sphere which are not displayed right?

achilles_rsachilles_rs6/30/2025

I'll play around with the map more to be sure but as of now, yes.

achilles_rsachilles_rs6/30/2025

I would like to note that they only do not appear while using Live Mode in case that wasn't previously stated

devleondevleon6/30/2025

Yes

doc.115doc.1157/4/2025

Gosh, I am having the same problem... no spheres in live mode. I just switched live off and they all popped up.

achilles_rsachilles_rs7/4/2025

Same here.

exanaduexanadu7/5/2025

Same problem here

devleondevleon7/5/2025

Ok, I will reserve some time next week for this issue

achilles_rsachilles_rs7/7/2025

Thank you

I'm also not showing mercer spheres, but as I mentioned earlier, live mode for normal nodes and deposits aren't working as expected. The *deposit* capping normal nodes seems to be taking the normal nodes flag, so normal nodes that haven't been touched show up in live mode, but disappear after mining out the default deposit. All of the random deposits also show as normal nodes, then disappear after mining, but the "default" (white rock icon) deposit stays on in both live mode on and off, unless manually toggled off in the show menu. Map version 1.0.6, Game version EGS CL#418783 if that helps. I'm also happy to share any logs or my game saves, if that would help you in any way!

MEE6MEE67/8/2025

GG @Canis, you just advanced to level 1!

devleondevleon7/8/2025

Yes, there are some limitations in the live mode regarding the normal nodes.

canisceruleancaniscerulean7/8/2025

ok, if it's a known issue, I won't bring it up again, but let me know if I can do anything to help.

devleondevleon7/8/2025

I will, thx! I should have time this week to work on it

canisceruleancaniscerulean7/8/2025

if it helps, I believe that the deposits used to have a "normal" on the tooltip when mining, or maybe "pure" but when they changed that (no idea which update/build) it may have rearranged the flags for nodes as well. good luck!

devleondevleon7/9/2025

I think I understand what you mean.

devleondevleon7/9/2025

You can see if live mode is supported for that type in the tooltip. if it's not supported, I simply show them even with live mode enabled.

But this could be confusing. I could hide them in live mode, unless the locations are static (always there)

devleondevleon7/9/2025

I released 1.1.0 of the Overwolf app. Can you test if the issue is fixed? @chief Bane @Achilles @Canis

achilles_rsachilles_rs7/9/2025

Testing now

MEE6MEE67/9/2025

GG @Achilles, you just advanced to level 1!

achilles_rsachilles_rs7/9/2025

You are amazing. The issue appears to be fixed

devleondevleon7/9/2025

Great! Can you check if something else is broken now? I had to adjust the position tracking. In my tests, it looked correct.

devleondevleon7/9/2025

In addition, locations which are not supporting live mode are hidden in live mode

achilles_rsachilles_rs7/9/2025

Will do! I'll have to check later on as I have more time but as of now Mercer Spheres, Sombersloops, and hard drives are accurately located in the ten or so objects I've been by

achilles_rsachilles_rs7/9/2025

Powerslugs and foods are reporting correctly so far

achilles_rsachilles_rs7/11/2025

So far I have not found anything out of place

canisceruleancaniscerulean7/14/2025

everything looks good on my end, mercer spheres are showing up correctly, I'll let you know if I notice anything out of place

canisceruleancaniscerulean7/14/2025

Disabling ALL live mode not supported locations might have been overkill, as it applies to the impure and pure nodes on the map, which were at least something. now impure, normal, and pure nodes are all missing, with live mode deposits showing as normal nodes until mined
