My model just started genuinely breaking for no reason i can figure out, I can't make any changes to the meshes of the cubes, if i try and move the objects slightly they move a mile, and the model won't properly export, save, or duplicate.

FAQ

Blockbench: Backups

🖥️ The Desktop version of Blockbench (by default) creates backups of your projects every 10 minutes.
To access them, go to Help > Open Backup Folder, and search for your backup in the folder.
PS: The interval and how long old backups are kept can be changed in the Blockbench settings (File > Preference > Settings > Application).

📱 The mobile/web version (and the desktop app) saves a backup if the model wasn't saved properly before exiting the app.
You can access the backup on the start screen after reopening the app.

Load one of the backups (that have the full model) click this icon and check if any meshes or groups have a [X] symbol instead of a camera symbol.
Make sure they all have the camera symbol, else the parts won't be exported.
