I'll work on getting the video settings to save correctly in the next update. The gourds will definitely be fixed asap as that is a pretty major issue. The problem is I cannot reproduce the bug and nobody else seems to have the same issue so far. There may have been some issue with your update. I'll look into it and see if there is a way to validate your install files like on Steam. You may need to redownload the game, but don't be too hasty to do so as the issue might be on my end.
That's interesting. I don't think that is the issue here because I think the items were not actually missing. It looks like they were just in the extra inventory slots that you have to scroll down to get to in the inventory.
I'll keep the serialization in mind if there are any issues with items or the inventory in the future.
I believe I have found the problem. I tried everything I possibly could to reproduce this bug with a full inventory: crafting while the inventory was full, breaking down stuff and salvaging in a full inventory and harvesting with a full inventory. The extra items drop out of the inventory as expected and you just have to pick them up again when you have enough room.
However, upon watching your latest youtube video I noticed something peculiar. You seem to have missed the scroll bar on the right side of the inventory and think that your inventory is full when it is only half full. Scroll down in the inventory by dragging the scroll bar or use the mouse scroll wheel. You should find your missing items in the 4 extra rows of inventory slots that you have :D
