Patch 0.214.300 (Public Test)

Time for some hotfixes! Aside from what we address in this patch, we are also looking into an issue related to some worlds being reset when playing on Xbox. Additionally, we have a fix for an issue that could cause worlds to be different on Xbox versus PC, which could cause buildings to break. These two issues have been our highest priority and are working as fast as we can to get them fixed and implemented!

An important note here, is that when this is fixed it means that certain worlds on the Xbox version will have terrain changes in small areas of the world. Worst case, if you’ve built a lot in one of these areas, buildings there may break. Unfortunately there is no better solution for this, as the areas need to match with the PC versions for crossplay and all future world generation, and we truly apologise for the trouble this causes some players. Luckily this is something only a small number of players will notice at all. We try our best to ensure that these issues do not happen, but sometimes it’s unavoidable and we are truly sorry for any inconvenience.

Remember that you can use the “Manage Saves” button in the world selection to recover a world if you’ve run into any world issues. And also, if you are having an unplayable game in the latest patch, you can always run the last stable version by changing to the ‘default_old’ branch on Steam.
