Broken data.sav
Just want to mention before anything further;
- I am able to access my original save file with my upgrades and points intact.
- No assets have saved in my base. Bought items i.e. (Kerfur) and crafted items i.e. (Scrap) are gone.
- Assets moved such as curtains and racks are gone and back in their default locations.
- Dirt and Rubbish I'd cleaned have respawned everywhere
My original save before the issue I hadn't cleaned every spot on the map I'm aware of the clean dirt and rubbish options but don't want to take away from the experience by removing all dirt and rubbish everywhere for areas unexplored but also having to redo all the cleaning I spent hours doing so it's a tricky situation.
Info & Troubleshooting
After having a PC issue and having no choice but to restart (this has happened multiple times with no issues upon re-launching) I had no game audio and the main menu was extremely pixelated. Furthermore, the options settings had everything set to 0. The tutorial wouldn't load properly so I couldn't test my main save. After backing up my original save data files and reinstalling the game I worked out that the data.sav file was causing this issue and I haven't been able to work out the reason for this.
On top of this putting my original save back into the files after deleting the original data.sav and re-launching (creating a fresh data.sav) when choosing my save the Purple and Black Error image is displayed on my save and the warning about the save being built on a different game version shows up. This isn't the case the game has been running on 0.7.0 since I installed it, around 2-3 days ago.
I've attempted to edit the .sav files and compare what's different between the two to see what specifically could be causing the issue but unfortunately I couldn't access or edit the files and I don't know of any other ways to do this besides saveeditoronline.com (Unsupported file format apparently)
That's as much detail as I can add from what I've attempted, really enjoying the game and completely understand it's in alpha so these things are to be expected but hopefully this may help quell the issue so nobody else has it in future.
I have only been playing for a couple days so if some things I mentioned are meant to be the case I apologise for confusing it for being an error etc!
