We've got fixes in progress and a workaround for you to use in the meantime. We could also use your help testing our fixes on Pre-Release. More info below. [h1][b]Game Data Issues[/b][/h1] While playing multiplayer, or sometimes when returning to single player, many users are reporting missing data in their game. Most often this takes the form of missing inventory in chests and/or disappearing creatures. We’ve narrowed the cause down to some parts of the multiplayer framework, but in order to fully fix it we needed to bring in a new framework that we have better control over. That has been our main focus, and you can see the progress on our Pre-Release branch. Please help us test. More info below. [b]Here’s What You Can Do To Recover Lost Data[/b] While we’re working on the fix, it is possible in many cases to recover the lost data. CHKN by default saves periodically while you’re playing as well as every time you return to the main menu. As soon as you notice that you have missing data you can load any of these past saves to recover. This will cause you to lose some progress, but this is often preferable to starting over. Here are the steps to take to recover your game: [olist][*] Save and return to the main menu to ensure you have a copy of your current save. [*] Continue your adventure game. [*] In the escape menu select the Load Save option. [*] In this menu you will see a list of all the saves of your current adventure game, along with a timestamp of when it was saved. The bottom of the list is the most recent, so start there and work your way up to find a save that has the recovered data.[/olist] [img]https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/11903998/de7e4e878bb28a47706fd239f4e9e68d45281a70.png[/img] [i]The Load Save screen. Choose an older save from the list to load it and check if your lost data is there.[/i] If you have questions or need more help, hop over to the #bug-reports channel on our [url=http://www.discord.gg/AtEYqHC]CHKN Discord[/url] and let us know. [h1][b]Pre-Release Update & Testing[/b][/h1] Our in-progress fixes have been pushed to Pre-Release (CHKN v0.7.7). [list][*] Updated to latest version of Unity Engine [*] Replaced networking framework with new solution to fix bugs and improve performance[/list] It's a short list but they're big changes. We're still evaluating the Unity update and the networking framework needs more testing so we could use your help! We need folks to play multiplayer on Pre-Release and report anything out of the ordinary.

We believe it. Beware the Shin Tsozilla!
