I don't know if it's a bug, but this odd minimap icon that looks like a broken eggshell has been appearing in all of my maps. There are no particular doodads or units in the spots where it pops up (that is, I checked the minimap icon in the actors for everything in the general area), and sometimes they even appear in areas of the map that have nothing at all.
It's a minor thing, it's just been bothering me for a bit; nothing game-breaking.
I think it's part of the gate UI. Or a unit placed. Some of the campaign units have this icon as default like sensor turrets. Try looking at what you edited.
I've already looked at the minimap icons for every actor present at those locations. I think it's also worth mentioning that the problem persists even if all the units and doodads are deleted.
I checked both of the actors for all the gates and all edited actors in addition to the actors for the default doodads in those areas. None of the actors had a minimap icon.
I already checked all the unit and doodad actors in the area, and regardless there's still the issue of when it appears when all the doodads and units are removed.

You checked both Unit actors for gates? You can also add minimap icons using actor events.

Could be a unit that you placed more than just the doodads gate.

Any triggers? Those can be used to apply stuff to the minimap.

The issue has been resolved. I should have searched a little more. :/

Change the minimap icon of all pre-placed unit groups to black.dds (or some other transparent alpha channel file) in the Object Groups editor.
It was strange because the icons showed up when there was no file specified (I guess it's the default).
