Issues fixed

Save game issue

The latest version of the game introduced local save files, but the player progress doesn't save properly and is lost after exiting the game.
Fix the local save file[1]
  1. Start a new game so the game creates the profile files.
  2. Exit the game, go to Saves folder inside your local profile folder and open tHPsave.sav file with Notepad.
  3. Replace the text inside with the text below and save the changes:

{ "avatar":1000000, "bans":null, "collectable":{}, "d_v":2, "health":0.0, "inventory":[], "kills":{}, "persistent":null, "position":{}, "seen_intro":false, "tokens":0, "unlocked_items":[], "world":{"severity":1.0,"time_of_day":5.00,"weather_time":94510.21093750}, "world_map":"eF5jYBjEQACNz4bGRwcN6AKjgBAAALmiAJc=", "xp":1.00 }

Notes

  • Use "unlocked_items":[1017,1008,1010,1019,1016,1009,1018] to unlock additional items in the store.
