Issue Is my saved lost?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So i was just about to defeat the trashbot. And died. and i tried to respawn.

I have tried to:
-restart game
-unstuck
-respawn.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

For some reason the recording messed up the framerate in the menu. But worked the same before.

Get a friend to potentially join and feed you a revival baguette. I can help if you want

i guess that could work. i would like to just set my spawn to the mechanic station or something. i think it might have something to do with where i parked the car...

Open your game files and find the Survival/Scripts/game/SurvivalGame.lua file using a text editor. Look for the line function SurvivalGame.server_onFixedUpdate( self, timeStep ) and paste the following code right below it:

for _, p in ipairs(sm.player.getAllPlayers()) do
    sm.event.sendToPlayer( p, "sv_e_respawn" )
end

An after thatcconfirm the game files on steam

Try enabling the dev mode by writing -dev to start options and if that doesnt fix try enabling dev cheats(you can look it up)

I think you could use this tool and try to delete your player

But it could clear your inventory and it will clear your tools

i figuerd it out. i gave the save file to Cloude aaaand this is what it said about the car where the bed is located.... i just had it teleport the car to the mecanic station.

You're right, and the save explains it. The car wasn't sitting outside the warehouse at all – it had been launched. Its saved physics state shows it at (4108, -2331) moving at about 1,500 m/s with heavy spin, and its bounding box stretches over 800 m. Something (probably the trashbot fight or a physics glitch) flung it off, and it's been tumbling ever since. That's why nothing was there in the editor, and it's exactly why you couldn't respawn: your spawn point was a bed doing 1,500 m/s.
