Containers Resetting

[dr badhat]

So I'm loving the game and I'm in my first decent run where I haven't been killed by wolves/blizzards in the first 24 hours... I've actually made it to 42 days and made the trip from mystery lake to pleasant valley. I've been holed up in the farmhouse for a week with a huge stockpile of meat, but I just loaded up my save and every container has reset. The good news is I had my bow and gun on me when I last saved... But I've lost all birch saplings, scrap metal, food, fire starter, pry bar, quality tools, etc. It's super depressing. It looks like all my skins and guts that were curing on the floor have disappeared too

That sucks :oops:

The same issue happened to me once so I quit then reset the game. All of my stuff returned when I logged back in.

We are looking into this, should have a fix for it next update. Thanks

This just happened to me again, when returning to the Radio Control Hut. I had a bunch of stuff curing on the floor, things in every container. The whole area resets, not just the containers. I tried everything, leaving, returning, reloading, restarting. Nothing worked. It's disheartening, but it comes with play testing an alpha game. :cry:

I'll probably start over with another user, and maybe I can get my stuff back somehow with the original user.

Never seems to have happened to me but now I'm worried it will. It's not the same as the Farmhouse big because it seems to happen in more than one area.

Is it only happening with containers or do items on the floor disappear as well? For people in the farmhouse, do items appear/disappear when you go through different doors?

It's all the items on the floor and the containers for me, in the Radio Control Hut.

This just happened to me again, with another user's character. I started in a different location this time. I did find one commonality. After progressing through all four areas, then returning to the Coastal Highway, I went to the gas station and all containers and items had reset. The abandoned lookout also had reset. Maybe it has to do with traveling between areas, as this didn't happen in my longer-played game until I had traversed all areas via the ravine. It happened in this shorter-played session after that, so it seems logical.

[Guest mcopeman]

Hmmm thanks for the extra info. I'll check this out!

I tried again, and this time got a different result. Starting in Mystery Lake, I got all my stuff together at the Camp Office and then made my way through all the areas. When I returned to the office, everything was as I left it, and the containers were unchanged, with my things in them.

I'm going to continue through the world, back to the Radio Hut and see if it resets like in my other game.
