Time for some hotfixes! This patch should fix an issue where Xbox players and PC players got different heightmaps, which could cause a player to appear to fly in the air or walk below ground. Unfortunately, if an Xbox player has built in an area like this, this change will cause buildings to collapse. We sincerely apologise for this, but it was important to make this change now to prevent further issues later down the line.
Something else that we are working on is a fix to the issue where Xbox worlds have been resetting to day 1 after reaching a certain size. We have identified the problem and believe we have found a solution to it, which should be featured in the next patch. For now, we apologise and thank you for your patience.
Remember that you can use the “Manage Saves” button in the world selection to recover an earlier version of your world if you’ve run into any world issues. And also, if you are having an unplayable game in the latest patch, you can always run the last stable version by changing to the ‘default_old’ branch on Steam.

In this patch we finally have a fix for the issue that caused worlds of a certain size to be reset to Day 1 on Xbox consoles. We are deeply sorry that people have been losing progress, and we hope that things will run smoothly from here on out.
If you have lost progress, you should now be able to restore some of it by using the “Manage saves” section in the main menu, provided that you still have backups with sufficient data.
This version may be displayed in the logs as .305 but .300 in the menu because of platform differences, but these are in fact the same version. We will rework the versioning for this in an upcoming patch and apologise for any confusion.
Detailed Patch Notes:
Fixes & Improvements:
- Minor UI performance fixes
- Fixed a bug that could occur when rebinding keys
Console:
- Worlds on Xbox will no longer reset to Day 1 once they reach a certain size

Today’s patch includes some further fixes for Xbox issues, among other things! There will be a few more patches before all the Xbox issues have been fully resolved, but this is at the very least a step in the right direction.
Patch notes:
Fixes & Improvements:

- World saves with missing .fwl files now show up in the Manage Saves menu so that they can be deleted.
- Fixed a bug where backups couldn't be restored if the main save file was missing its .fwl file.
- Fixed a bug that made world saves in cloud storage create a blank .old file when saving, instead of no .old file.
- Player & ship markers are now shown correctly above map pins on the minimap
- Lighting effects reduced when using “reduce flashing lights” setting for Eikthyr antlers, all boss spawning, guardian power and boss stone activation
- Network compatibility version is now displayed separately in the console and log file and each non-pc platform has a platform prefix in the version text
Console:
- Improved stability and performance of world saving to decrease chance of saves being corrupted on microsoft store and xbox
- Save files that were corrupted as a result of incomplete file operations in cloud storage are detected and can no longer be started as empty worlds
- Fixed a bug where the time stamps of cloud saves were retrieved as UTC instead of local time.
