Issues fixed

Issues unresolved

"Save Game Not Compatible With Current Game Version"

Commonly reported after game crashes, indicating a corrupted save.[3][4]
To avoid this, make sure to occasionally back up save files or save more often to minimize lost progress.

Singleplayer save file unavailable after opening MultiPrayer

Opening your profile in MultiPrayer can make your game incompatible with the singleplayer variant.
Profiles are opened on the main menu automatically, meaning opening the executable is enough to cause this problem.
Switch to a new profile before opening the MultiPrayer executable[5]
