Issues fixed

Expeditions starving unexpectedly, not using food or fuel

Ensure that Allow Using New Consumables is enabled[2]

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]

Notes

  1. Unity engine build: 5.4.5p2[1]
  2. 2.0 2.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/378720/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (378720) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
  3. When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
