unable to select difficulty / gender on v. 348

[Tbone555]

hello let me start by saying that my first 4 sandboxes did let me select my difficulty / gender. though, due to a string of bad luck leading to premature death in these characters, they are all dead. upon trying to start a new sandbox, no matter what i select, it sets me as male on voyageur. im still able to select my starting map. my lil sis completely refuses to play as a male, and i completely refuse to play on anything other than stalker so you see my issue with this

i understand that anything can happen in the alpha, but i just thought i should inform yall, hopefully have it resolved in the next hotfix. in the meantime, i will just play on challenge mode. i still have quite a ways to go on white out!
