I attempted to originally but this forum does not allow the posting of links. I had originally done a source link below my post and it said I violated the terms of this forum. The moment I removed the internal link and only that link was I able to post. All the details I gave are the best I can do due to the limitations of this forum.

Otherwise, here is a copy of the temp fix I came up with and posted there:

I think I found a temporary fix.
I had an idea and went about initiating it.
I used the new Settings Option "Messages" and went to filters, chose science and disabled all 'Anomaly' and 'System Surveyed' notifications. The idea was that if the notification never pops up, it can't ping the map. Sure enough I no longer have the issue.

For those that want the notification it's an issue but this at least makes the game playable again.
(Bad news is if the issue already exists on an existing save it'll persist. You'll have to start over with a fresh save after initializing the setting for it to "prevent" the bug. This temp fix doesn't remove pre-existing notifications.)

this forum does not allow the posting of links.

You can post link on this forum : you can't just copy/paste them in the text.
To insert a link you need to click the "Insert link" (Ctrl+K) option (with the kind of two "c" with one in the wrong way, who are around a "-", two step at left from the smilies button)
Like it : one of my suggestion post for better Custodians (just an exemple to test if the link really work)

edit : i haven't totally understand (sorry : english isn't my first language) what you say after that about the link you have insert, but maybe you have insert in without passing by this way i describ ?
