Can't proceed in tutorial: How do I switch to independent realms map mode?

Question

I've started the tutorial, but I haven't proceeded very far.... How do I switch to independent realms map mode?

Answer 1

That part of the tutorial seems to be currently broken.

In a recent version (v1.09), selecting map modes changed. What you're supposed to do is to click on the + button:

Which will show the various map modes that you can use (independent realms is the second button with the image of a shield):

But doing this doesn't work in the tutorial right now. I think you'll have to skip the rest of this tutorial and continue with other tutorials. (There is a ▶ button for that in the lower left corner.)

This bug has already been reported by other players.
