GAME NOT SAVING FOR OTHER PLAYERS, ONLY HOST PLEASE HELP
Someone please help. My friend who is the host is the only person out of our 3 other friends who got to keep his inventory after we saved and quit. We just lost three hours of progress somehow but the host is the only person who had his stuff saved. I even reinstalled the game and tried to copy his saves from app data and nothing

Everyone has to save, otherwise only the host who saved will have his progression and gear saved...

The Host saves their inventory and ALL Structures, while other players save their own inventory. Make sure to always be saving :D

I think this is what causes the seasons to go out of sync as well. I can't say for sure but that is definitely an issue we had, for one person it's winter, for another it's not. That information should be saved on the hosts save and loaded upon joining the server so that everyone is on the same page but that might be easier said than done, I'm no game dev.

EVERY Player need to save his own Inventory, the HOST DOES NOT save other Players Inventory

Has happened to me 3 times, with major progress loss. I save every time the host saves, as well as before we log out after 2/3 hour sessions. Not sure why it happens sometimes and not other times.

Ended up playing for a decent bit, host wanted to get off so we ALL saved before getting off, next thing you know we load up the next day later to play, and I spawn in at a cave I saved at prior to that with the same inventory. Thought it was no big deal I'll just go get the stuff I'm missing and it'll be fine. Nope, ended up getting everything again then an hour or two later we decide to get off the game and we all made sure to save (like 5 times each lol) and then next play session I spawn in at the same exact cave. That's twice that a 2 hour play session was completely reset for no specific reason. The host's save works perfectly fine but not 3/5 people playing.

Horrible bug just happend to us today, we both saved then logged out. When we came back later, my friend is missing all items from the last 4 hours run. Fix this asap please.

Same here. On first day we played, we spawned every time at the same location. Today, we spawned at different locations. I lost once my zip line tool, the second time I lost my rebreather... the host never lost anything. PLs fix

Sure it will eventually get fixed.
What I do is I always make sure that I see the Game saved message when I save, if I don't see it or if I missed it, I save again.
