Hey everyone! Hope you’re all doing well today 😊

We’ve got a special issue to discuss, and we need your help!

Issue
Some players have reported that their characters in multiplayer are getting swapped with another player’s character. We're not sure what's causing this yet, but we’re on it and want to fix it ASAP. We’re keeping track of this and have read all of your reports. Your continued input is crucial!

Requested Information
We’d like to know:

  • What were you and the other players doing when it happened?
  • Was it the host or another player who was affected?
  • Were any mods being used?

The more details you provide, the better! We’re trying to reproduce the issue, but we haven’t pinpointed the common factor yet. Any additional information you think is relevant would be greatly appreciated ✨

If you’ve experienced this issue, please send us your save files through the bug report form. This will help us understand and fix the problem. When you submit, name the issue "Swapped/Merged Characters" and include your Discord username so we can easily locate your reports. If your friends were in the session, ask them to send a report too.

Thank you all for your help! 😊

This happened on me and my friends world just this morning too

We can send you our world's save file that we hosted via Bisect Hosting

What was happening was

  1. Installed auto fishing
  2. Left my character to fish overnight while I was sleeping (hahaha)
  3. Woke up with my game crashed
  4. My friend logged in
  5. Swap happened

My working theory is that, since I was autofishing, the number of items in-world and on-screen caused the game to bug out/crash

It happened to me too during the trade

It was some time ago and not in my world so I cannot send the save file but I can say that the world I was in during the trade was really lagging and bugged (I saw my character standing double side by side)

#

it's very possible that it's about an excess of items on the ground, as mentioned by the person above

This happened with two people in my crew once (long time ago now). Wish I could contribute more info, but all I can really remember is that we were running a dedicated server, somebody had DCed at some point, pretty sure we had a few mods, and there may have been a version number mismatch involved. Normally you can't have a mismatch (you won't connect) but maybe this is a thing that can happen if V# mismatch isn't flagged properly. We've taken a long hiatus from CK and are excited to start a new world after 1.0 launch, so if something like this occurs again for us I'll be sure to give more/better info.

this should be an issue with the world, a char swap should always lead to any runtime exception and should not ever happen in real , you should protect such issue and protect it but log it and ask a player to report, that this can happen means you dont have enough security checks...
