Since the latest update, all of my Techtonica saves have become corrupt in my steam app. I had gotten to the last upgrade tier and had unlocked everything in my tech tree, but suddenly all conveyor belts have stopped moving, all machines have stopped working and some items have partially or completely disappeared. I all of those advanced saves have become useless. I have started a new game from the beginning and everything seems to be working fine with the fresh start but my other saves seem like they are toast...
#Corrupt Saves Since Update

I have tried rebooting, that didn't help so then I tried copying my saves to another directory and then uninstalling and reinstalling the game, but still no change.
that definitely should not happen - are you getting an error message?
Not that I'm aware of, just the symptoms mentioned
usually this is a corrupted save that is caused by the HVC - were you using it?
When I had errors, I didn't have any errors pop up either. However if you go into windows event viewer (Windows Key -> type Event Viewer in the search bar, click on Event Viewer), Under windows logs (left hand panel), there is a section for Application logs. Right click Application, click Find... and search for Techtonica. Look for an "Error" log.
No, I don't use the HVC...
can you try loading an earlier save?
I tried a little earlier, I might try going back a week or so to see if that works, I'll let you know when I do
You know, on second thought, I guess I do have HVC on my map, but I haven't touched it in a while and I wasn't placing any when I started seeing the save file corruption.
I was finally able to load an older save, but I had to go back about 17 hrs of game play to find one that worked
was it right beore you have the HVC set up?
