Missing inventory since last patch

Encountered that bug now.
My question, if I restart a new game, will I face that bug?

I wonder why you create another topic with the same bug. But answering your question = from description posted by community manager probably yes. You will encounter it even with new game.

Sorry, if there is already a thread with that topic. Didn`t see it. Could you please link it?

Is there a time schedule, when that bug is supposed to bei fixed?

there are two threads:

and a note from devs:

Thank you for the prompt response. I guess I have to wait out for the debug before continuing to play.

Is this issue an hourā€™s thing or days?

Quite frustrating the auto updates for patches if you have a stable version and are happily playing, then they update you and introduce bugs.

I hope, they fix this soon, as it makes no sense to play it at the moment.

Until then, I return to Xenonauts :wink:

I have backup of the game before patch with nerf, I can make a second backup before to apply last patch, but it seems the inventory bug is here for all players, so I wonder.

In previous game version (pre patch with nerfs), I quoted inventory problem only after a scrap session. But this bug was related to soldiers equipment not global stash. Still I didnā€™t do any scrap and never had it anymore.

I wonder if it canā€™t be the same with last patch and this new bug.

Do you believe, they will fix this the current weekend?

Just for information a counter case test:

Mac, load save from prev version, count items in stash, 8 rows and an item. Save and load this save, 5 times, no stash change.

But I didnā€™t check if ammo stacks lowered, and didnā€™t check soldiers inventories and equipment changed, but for first 3 soldiers in the list.

Special context:

  • Mac
  • Campaign without any single item scraping, not sure for base building scraping.
  • Just saves and load tests, no play, to crafting, no drop pick, no scrap (I never do it to avoid have equipment problems).
  • No living items, first mission not done.

Same issue here. come on!

Every save it erases my entire inventory and any creatures Iā€™ve captured. I lost 90 creatures and hundreds and hundreds of items.

Donā€™t overwrite your saves, announcement at the top of the site says once theyā€™ve fixed the issue you should be able to get your equipment back so long as you still have the save file it all disappeared from.

Like I said. Does not exactly signal competence.

In other words, stop playing the game until they fix the bug. What good is not overwriting a save, when all of your equipment is ā€œstolenā€ at a point. Waiting for a fix of the bug to use an old save (not overwritten) where your equipment was lost is waiting for the bug to get fixed before one can continue using a product one paid for.

Just before I lost my inventory I started seeing one of my units getting a replacement ammo pack that showed as ā€œ2ā€ in the body screen. Dragging it to an empty spot in storage it still showed as 2 ammo packs, but when dragged back to the body it was only 1. Next time I check after leaving base, my inventory was empty.

Yeah itā€™s not good. They canā€™t seem to introduce a patch without creating more bugs (usually game breaking ones) in a game that was buggier and more unbalanced than it should have been for a finished product anyway. Like I keep saying, weā€™re basically QA testers for Backer Build 5.5.

At this point they should be thinking about some sort of ā€˜thank youā€™ freebies for us, really. I would suggest Living Weapons being made free for everyone but that would be a bit of a middle finger to people that paid extra for the special edition (not to mention itā€™s not a freebie for them). Anything else though is going to take yet more dev time and, given the track record so far, will probably have more gamebreaking bugs in it.

What a mess :frowning:

So the masochist I am, I rolled back to a save where I did have inventory and moved on. It seems that the bug was either triggered again when I found my 2nd PP Base or recruited my first soldier. I am pretty sure it was the recruiting that triggered it. But I canā€™t be sure because a couple of my previous saves (where I was pretty sure I had inventory before saving) also where missing inventory (how a previous save can get hit by the bug I have no clue).

Okay, that did it, I am hanging up my beta-tester apron and will wait for a fix (on to something else that isnā€™t as frustrating ā€“ I really, really want to enjoy this game, butā€¦)

I stopped playing right after the Epic Fiasco. Iā€™ve been waiting for some fixes. I guess Iā€™ll wait some more. I think the mod community should get going on it. That might help like someone else stated elsewhere. I think it will get there. These things do take time. Maybe a beta branch would help?

Can not understand, they didn`t test the latest patch.

to miss such a mistake that will make the game unavailable and not fix it within a couple of hours means complete disrespect to the players, Iā€™m upsetā€¦They didnā€™t even give you the option to roll back the update

@Nelr you are so right man, itā€™s unplayable and they are doing nothing about it
