When loading into a specific faction controlled frontier, it’ll sometimes change to a different faction. Just recently loaded into what showed as a Totality controlled area, but to my surprise it was full of Tharsis Reformation.
Also noticed that sometimes the displayed badge when hovering over a job shows a different controlling faction than the one shown when inspecting the modifiers. I’ve attached screen shots showing this confusing display of conflicting information.

These two bugs make it pretty confusing trying to understand all the new icons and what they mean when you think it’s one thing, but is a completely different thing. Pretty annoying having to re-queue. Seems like the game can’t refresh the map as they change controlling factions.
On a side note, I would really appreciate a tooltip menu for new content and activities for explaining icons shown on the map that dont have a front facing explanation or tooltip. For example, when viewing the lawless frontier there should be a 3rd tab in the Contracts and Wallet menu bullet pointing descriptions of various icons and important information. Would be helpful to be able to access this when I forget something.
