Welcome to the forum, @wiremcc 🙂

Which Stonehearth version are you playing? It’s the first time you play the game? If not, have you experienced this problem in the previous version too?

By ‘everytime i start a game’ you mean a new game, or also when you load a saved game?

Also, could you post your system specs (CPU, RAM, Graphic card, OS…)?
