Save game not working, possible zubmariner issue?

AgentTBC Posts: 53 10/1/2016	So my save game won't load properly and I don't know why. I have been playing as normal for ages and quit for a few minutes and now when I try to continue my save game it loads improperly and is unplayable. It appears to be an issue with zubmariner content? Which I didn't realize was even in the game yet. I say this because, as you can see from the screenshot I will include, it appears my ship has been replaced with some sort of submersible. I should be at (I believe) Godfall in the Corvette and instead all I see is bubbly water and a zubmarine. This is a big problem. I am a hundred hours into this game or something and I will just cry if it is lost. Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/aaUJHbs.png

It looks to me like the save game somehow became corrupt when an item in your hold is somehow doubled in the save file. Not like you have twice the amount you are supposed to (like 10 supplies instead of 5) but that the line in the code that tells the game how much you have gets repeated in the save file. For some reason, the last 3 entries in the save file were (almost) repeats of earlier entries. Like say I had 15 Hunting Trophies. There was a line in the save file saying I had 15 Hunting Trophies. Then at the end of the save file there was another line saying I had 16 Hunting Trophies. This happened for 3 objects. Deleting the three repeated entries allows the game to load normally. It only took like 15 hours of work to figure out ;x

For your interests: This is caused by players 'Authenticating' through the 'Account Options' panel while playing the game. Previously this option was locked and you could only do it from the Main Menu. But when we overhauled the UI the lock wasn't carried through. Thankfully we're able to fix save files that were effected by this issue. But we would ask that you avoid updating while playing until the fix is released to avoid causing issues in your save file. Again thanks for highlighting this issue! -- Unity Developer \| Failbetter Games
