    Are you talking about on the HUD where it normally shows actions like generator or healing? In that spot the only diamond shape I can think of is the one with the skull in the center. That one shows the survivor is interacting with a killer object like Trapper's traps or shooing Artist's crows away.

    If it's a diamond shape above the action bar, that just means the item's efficiency is being affected. Things like medkits have lower efficiency on self use.

    Not sure if those are what you're referring to.

    Hi. Thanks everyone for your input. I am on Xbox One Console. The original one until the other day until lightning killed it. So I fixed after days of trying, the Xbox One S console that broke right after an update when it was only a few months old. I don't know if it's because I'm on a different console or what but ever since I played on this one, I've noticed a intertwined double diamond shape just above all of the Survivors. Not next to each one like the Gens or crates or being chased icons,above You since everyone is always first in the list when they are playing. I don't know what it's trying to tell me but I've never seen it before.

    Thanks. I assume it's saying someone's connection isn't strong. Still not sure if it telling me it is my connection or someone I'm chasing because I noticed it while playing Killer for certain and not sure if I noticed it while playing Survivor or not.
