Title: If you are mid-animation to the scythe swinging at exactly the time kible pulls you out of the water, the game will shift to a black screen but never load the surface. The only fix is to close the game and lose my progress for the day.
Reproduction Steps: I successfully replicated it by just constantly swing my scythe starting at 10:50pm
Repro Rate: Happen twice naturally, but is replicatable
Game Platform: Steam
Game Version: v1.2-1239 (not tested on v1.2-1240 but did not see it listed in patch notes)
Input Mode: Keyboard and mouse

I do not have a video of the bug but can replicate it and record one if that will be useful!

Sure! I've updated my original message!

Did you dive from the pier or use fast travel on the days when you got stuck on the black screen? I ask because there's been a bug when using fast travel to underwater that lead to the same thing, stuck on a black screen when being auto-pulled out (either at 11pm or from low stamina). I'm just wondering if maybe this was the bug that affected you and the scythe swinging at that specific time could be just a coincidence, or if this is a new, different bug with a similar end result?

If it's the known bug, then I think it might have been fixed with today's update judging by this point:

Fixed player is not carried to land by Kible when low energy.
(I will leave it to the dev team to confirm if it's the same thing, though. I haven't tested it out.)

Oh, I have been using fast travel each time. I will do further testing to see if it happens without. Might have been an odd coincidence, but since experiencing the bug the first time I’ve taken special care to stop using my tool prior to 11 and have so far not experienced the bug in this way.
