Door/Entrance Bug

Morgan le Fay · March 24, 2016

Quite upset that my longest game (527 days in Voyageur) ended today because of a glitch.

Place: Coastal Highway, Quonset Gas Station

Glitch: When I clicked on door to enter, it went to the black screen and instead of putting me inside the gas station, I was dumped right back outside. I tried to go around to the front door and try there, but the same thing happened (black, like it was going to put me inside the building, but then it dumped me back outside).

Since I could not get in the gas station, the bear who had just taken me down to 7% life was able to finish me off.

I apologize for this happening, unfortunately as we are still in Early Access bugs will occur. I'd like to collect a bit more info so we can figure out why this happened to you. Have you started a new game, and if so is the issue still occurring? Also please verify TLDs Steam cache, to ensure that it's not missing files. If you do have this happen again I'd like to get you to paste your save files here so we can reproduce and debug this issue.

No worries! It was just mildly frustrating in the grand scheme of things. I was heading toward boredom with that game, so it allowed me to re-start in Stalker mode with a greater challenge, and now I'm on day 74.

I have not had a similar bug happen so far, and I will check on the cache issue later tonight or tomorrow.

Is there a way to paste in save files here upon perma-death (I thought the files were deleted).

Thanks!

Yes, the saves are deleted upon death, but if you have the door return you to an exterior when it shouldn't again, please grab the save ASAP. It may be a bit tricky since you will need to drop a sleeping bag to save at that point, but if we can get the save while the issue is occurring we may be able to track down why it's happened, or at the very least rule out some conditions.

I seem to be in the same sort of situation. Got mauled by a bear many days into a voyageur campaign and doors stopped working. Slept in a car and then got teleported to the bottom of the map when I tried again.

Map: Pleasant valley

Location: Pleasant Valley Farmstead

Bug: Like Morgan, I was a long way into a game on voyageur (110 or so days) and one day got mauled by a bear. I managed to limp back to the farmstead only to find that when I attempted to enter the building to safety I would be teleported back outside the door I just tried to open. I tried this for all the doors and the basement entrance as well for the same result. I then slept for an hour in the car nearby and when I tried to re enter the building instead of being teleported outside, I would be sent to the bottom of the map (I'm assuming its still pleasant valley since it doesn't say a new map name). I would then start to fall, but I exited before I landed. I reloaded and I tried opening the signal hill building door instead but again I would be sent to the same place on the bottom of the corner of the map. I haven't died yet so the save file is still there (uploaded the contents here).

Cheers, and no rush.
