Each time the group marker is activated, all background tiles in it will be red for a second.

By design, when you use the group marker you are spawning tiles and the result of a spawn flashes red for the first frame (only for colorable tiles, maybe because they need to be initialized before appliyng the correct color).

Considering how you used the marker I think would be useful to add another marker used for hiding and showing tiles.

Improved after Alpha v.1.3.3 by simply not rendering the tile "while it's red" which is only the first frame as noticed here.
