Just wanted to bump this up. I’ve been having the same issue. Any help would be great.

Unfortunately i can confirm it - it always stays at 16km in game.
Also had most of the time a ctd after clicking "new" - only "apply" did not cause a ctd.

Thanks for checking on that. I think BG is looking into the issue. They've been very responsive so hopefully, there will be some resolution shortly.

made some more tests:
in the 9.1.140 version it works editing, saving, caching , in game display (that was the version i used to make that custom hexsize mars maps)
caching the same map in the final version resets the hex size to 16km (not only in the ESC-menu display but also in the range calculations ie. that distance measurement tool)
