Possible to roll back save?

[Big Scary Myr Party]

Hey guys, I was in the middle of the game when an emergency called me away from my computer. I thought I paused but I did not. Now half my machines are missing and I lost my primary chests of resources. Is it possible to rollback a world save somehow?

I know I can just make a new world or keep playing, but I think I literally lost some unique materials and I was in the middle of a big build, to the point I might just give up on the game for a while if I can't recover this.

Maybe if you haven't saved over the backups....

Goto C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\LocalLow\Pugstorm\Core Keeper\Steam\129024471...

In there are 2 folders you're looking for one is called 'Saves' that contains #.json and #.json.pugbackup files of character data, the other is 'Worlds' that contains #.world.gzip and #.world.gzip.pugbackup files of the actual worlds.

Make a backup of the whole folder 1st just in case, then delete the character or world file you want to roll back and remove the '.pugbackup' from the corresponding backup file.

Cross your fingers and hope for the best.

How can you loose items in Core Keeper?

If a chest is "destroyed", the items inside and the chest itself usually just fall to the ground and can be picked up again ...

I wish I knew. I lost 3 of the final forges and a chest with hundreds of forged bars. There was no trace of them.

"hundreds" of bars is a small number for Core Keeper.
You know that every drilled Ore Boulder gives 1800 ore? There are dozens of boulders for each type of ore spread over the map.

Oh yeah, absolutely, but like, I only just started a few days ago, just got solarite, and it was in those tier 3 smelters and those disappeared two. It literally dropped me like 3 whole metal tiers. It was insanely discouraging.

I take it the crossing of fingers worked then?

Actually my friend and I just started a new game and new characters. I checked and unfortunately I didn't have a save pre-missing items.

I would really love to know where they got to, though.

At least I got a free lesson in proper base building.
