Hi, I have genuinely no idea how this site works so I'm so sorry if I'm responding to or in the wrong place, but this feels like a really big error worth being brought to mention.
I play on a Windows 10 laptop through steam. Single player, never installed any mods.
I have never ran into bugs before, but after the 1.6 update, there appeared one that removes my entire farm safe.
The game works like normal until I go to sleep in-game, and then instead of saving my progress, the game gets stuck on the black screen with the little "saving" text frozen in the left lower corner. It stays like this for a few seconds and then shuts down the entire game.
Once I return to the game after it's done this, the entire save-file of the farm that it happened in is entirely gone from the 'load' area, and doesn't appear again no matter how many times I try to leave and open the game again (though that probably wouldn't do much anyways).
It can still be found in the files of my laptop itself, but I have absolutely no idea how it can be brought back into the game from there so it's practically as good as forever lost to me and probably would also be to anyone else not good with computer file stuff. This error has happened to me twice now, first on a new safe file and now on my first-ever/most-played one.
I don't know how to get or open any code or file related information regarding the error so I can't provide any.
(Ps. If anyone seeing this knows how I can bring it back to the game from my laptop's files I would be incredibly grateful.)
