#

So you have a save loss?

#

Did you try the save restore feature?

worthy ledge
#

I've never used the save function

#

the game crashed when going to the reality engine, and when I restarted the app it sent me back to the very start of the game

#

Did a restore now and hope to finish the bees again

worthy ledge
#

Best of luck to you! 👍

manic perch
#

Did you fix yours?

worthy ledge
#

Since I don't have a save I don't anticipate getting it all back 😕

#

at least I kept my darwinium

worthy ledge
manic perch
#

yes, I went back to yesterday

worthy ledge
#

Good stuff

#

I'm a bit apprehensive to continue playing until the bug is solved

#

I will not restart my main simulation for now 😬

heres your report:

I've noticed some bugs since the latest upgrades that I thought might interest you and I've tried for a cohesive summary below

  1. game freezing
    I've noticed the game freezing, and I can't do anything on the screen. It's happened in all of the simulations, and it seems to have happened when I've been doing lots of clicking, either on upgrades or clicking for extra entropy, etc.

  2. failing restart of primary simulations
    I tried to restart the primary simulation, and the screen froze on black.
    The next time I tried to restart it went to the red background, but I had no buttons, or options for upgrade
    These issues forced me to restart the app, which lead to issue number 3

  3. lost progress
    When the app crashed during the restart of the simulation, I lost my progress after restarting the app. The times I successfully got to the reality engine and restarted the app, I experienced NO loss of progress

Due to the 2 crashes described above, I've lost this progress 2 times with the following results

  • animations of all animals are redone
  • all awards are rediscovered
  • I need to play through the game to reach the other simulations and functions
  • I need to go from the start in all the beyond and Mesozoic simulations
  • I lost my metabits
  • I lost my Logit bits

But I kept

  • my Darwinium
  • acceleration of primary simulation from previous restarts
  • progress in the event-simulation
  • all the upgrades for dinosaurs and planets
  • which achievements I'd reached in the Mesozoic and beyond simulations, so all I needed to do was to press "upgrade universe" or "asteroid" until I was caught up
  • in mezosoic I also got to keep how many of each dinosaur I had created. So if I needed 77 stegosaurus for an achievement and had collected 40 before my progress, I now only needed to collect 37 to reach my goal (in beyond I had to completely rebuild all the planets )

Thanks for restoring it!

sand tinsel
#

and what version of the game where you on ? having a little bit more info would help. I was not able to reproduce this bug myself

(cc @manic perch as well)

worthy ledge
#

My current version is 20.70

sand tinsel
#

Alright, i'll try reproducing it on my end again

sand tinsel
#

(Please do make sure backup your save onto cloud before attempting anything to ensure that it doesnt get affected)

You can use the game transfer feature to upload your save to the cloud

#

I'm documenting wih screenshots. Right now red screen of death 😁

#

First the text was really dark and hard to read

#

Then I got a few like this, looks nice, clearly back on track

#

Nothing to be found here, restarted the game

#

Speed upgrades are appearantly working, Darwinium is there, but all achievements, badges and logits gone

manic perch
#

And then I restored this. From yesterday, bacause today's allready got overwritten

#

Hope ths was helpful @sand tinsel

sand tinsel
#

It was, could you please DM me the email associated with your game transfer account ? we'll take a look at your save file to narrow down the issue

sand tinsel
#

and anyone else who could consistently reproduce this issue as well

We released a new version (20.74) on prod that will fix this bug, let me know if you are still experiencing resets.
