#Save file won't load

Hey there! I was about 80 cycles into my first Watcher playthrough and located in ||Badlands|| when something catastrophic went wrong with my save file, and now it gets stuck on the "Loading..." part of the menu, never to load again. This happened first after I slept and went through the resting menu, and then every subsequent time I tried to load my save.

I have footage of exactly what happened before my save bricked: https://cdn.steamusercontent.com/ugc/7425417454239533/60354DE5861928C2D27364AB641282B989FF8470/

I also have a mental recount of what was in the shelter. I had a spear, a rock, a Big Spider (alive), and two of those ||burrowing worms you can eat (both dead, one had been dead for several cycles, the other one for just one cycle)||. I was also in the Watcher's ||invisibility|| at ||about 5 karma, if I recall correctly|| when I went into the resting animation.

I would love to see if there's a fix for other players, but I'd also really like if anyone can help me edit the save file to fix this myself. Based on when my save bricked, I figure it might have something to do with the conditions where I slept, but I'm not 100% sure.

Thank you!
