Crashing during loading into solo world.

[unreal aurora]

I’m playing on a Lenovo Legion Go S running SteamOS.
I’ve already lost a 17-hour save, I’ve now been playing from the start for 6 hours, and I’d really rather not have to start over for the third time in such a short space of time.
The game kicks me back to Steam when it tries to load a world; I can hear sounds for a second and then it crashes.
I’ve tried the trick of deleting extra folders in the save folder, launched the game with various compatibility settings, and disabled Steam Cloud.
Before it started crashing whilst loading the world, the game would kick me back to the desktop whilst playing, at random intervals of every few to a dozen minutes.
I’m attaching a log from one such recent incident.
I’d be incredibly grateful for any help.

For the first time in my gaming history, I’m enjoying a game so much that I actually want to report the issue rather than just ignore it and look for something else, so I really want to sort this out xD

Hey, captains! We’re rolling out a new Steam Cloud Saves update intended to fix the issue with corrupted saves. We’ll be closely monitoring your feedback and will respond accordingly if any issues arise.

Version: 0.10.0.5.120-073042fb

Save files improvements
Implemented a new storage and backup system for save files

The game now automatically backs up all data every 10 minutes of gameplay and upon exiting

Updated the save file structure for cloud synchronization to minimize syncing issues

Broken save files no longer block the game from loading

Data Recovery UI: If the latest save file for a world or character is found to be broken at startup, a special UI window will appear. Players can either quit the game (e.g., to attempt a cloud resync) or recover data from a backup. The game will automatically offer the latest available one

Save Migration System: Implemented a system to migrate old save files (pre-version %version-number%) to the new format. In most cases, this process is seamless and invisible

Migration Conflict Handling: If the game detects old, corrupted save files that cannot be properly migrated, a notification window will appear with information about the affected files and a prompt to delete them

Yea... The surprise was that the game decided to work this morning, so I played for about two hours; shortly after the update was announced, the game kicked me back to Steam xD
I enabled Steam Cloud, hoping it would update, but I lost my progress from today’s session and I’m back to square one – meaning the game won’t load again xD

[icy coyote]

The game won't load after the update?

[unreal aurora]

Unfortunately not; I select the world and the captain, the loading screen appears, and after a while I hear ambient sounds for a second before the game crashes
