Does it go away if you reload the game and save? That looks like a 25% drawn LCU square transported from somewhere else by a memory page glitch.

Nope it's still there after a reload a restart and running a\ turn. I wonder if its worth making a new thread in the tech forum.

Looks like its picking up a graphic from somewhere it's not supposed to. I seem to remember seeing that graphic in one of the bitmaps, can't remember which one now though. I think it's a scroll button or something. [&:]

Yep. Here's your shield. It's coming from the artwork for the scroll menu. See orange arrow in the picture below.

Yep, exact match. Seems to be a graphics glicth, might try opening some of those menus and closing them to see what happens.

Hey goatan, did you restart AE or reboot your computer? I'd suggest trying to reboot and then open AE with no other applications running. See if that clears it up.
