Waiting for Other Players Notification

[silver mural]

Summary
Game became unresponsive after unlocking the bamboo forest and greenhouse.
During the night, the animation unlocking the bamboo forest and greenhouse occurred. The greenhouse did not show in the animation after the petals/swirls were finished. The greenhouse area was still showing as empty during the animation. The screen then went black with a notification stating, “waiting for other players”. The game then became unresponsive, so I had to end the program.

Repro Rate
After ending the program and starting it again, everything worked properly. I was not able to reproduce the error.

hello! I play on ROG ally and it happened to me too, so I’m going to report it here as well. I made another duplicate post about it and I apologize! I tried to delete it. She told me to report here too and try to attach a ‘save file’ as well, but I have no idea how to do that? I’m on my phone.

Okie dokie, thanks for sharing it! ✨
One more thing, do you happen to remember the in-game date when the issue happened? 😮

[heavy stone]

Hiyaa Poco Coco! Thanks for sharing all this info in your post! By any chance, do you remember if a cutscene played before or after you encountered the bug? 😮

[silver mural]

Unfortunately, I do not. It was nearing the end of winter year 1 OR the beginning days of Spring year 2. I do know it was not the last day of the season.

I have since played and furthered the date.

o/ same issue here, the cutscene for unlocking the bamboo area played and have been stuck on this screen since then

if its useful, the day i unlocked the bamboo place was thursday 4th of summer

[soft mural]

It happened after it played

I’m just happy that I didn’t lose my save! So this bug means nothing to me.

[heavy stone]

Noted, thank you for your info!

[heavy stone]

Hiyaaa @formal quail, can you share your backup save file here as well? 😉

[heavy stone]

Noted for this! 📝 Do you remember what cutscene it was? Is it when unlocking the bamboo forest cutscene? 😮

[formal quail]
