Progress seemingly doesn't save after a certain point

I have this weird problem where loading a save sometimes spawns me in a place where I didn't end the last session. If this happens I can't move or look around. I can fast travel away but any further progress will not be saved. I lost quite a lot of playtime for the second time now. Is this a known bug?

Also when this happens there's an option called 'retreat from operation' in the menu as if I am in the middle of a mission when I'm clearly not. Could this be connected to a mission chain in Madrugada? I accepted a mission there that doesn't send me to a specific place but rather asks me to find a specific vehicle. This is the only thing the two times this happened have in common as far as I can tell.

I was able to restore an older savegame from the cloud where the previous mission in that chain hasn't been completed yet. It works perfectly fine.

Retreat and start the mission again.
Sometime in mission they place you in stupid places (like right at where you started)

If you want to end the game
always fast travel to a safe house or a check point on the map and then leave the game.
Then you for sure know thats where you will be when you restart the game again.

I just recently lost all my progress in FC4 after an update of the UbiSoft client. I never liked the thing, but now I despise it.

FC6 has quite a few more bugs than I have experienced with FC2-FC5. I get the occasional purple textures (i.e. after a signal flare), 5 of 6 jewel boxes are shown as found in one region but all 6 were actually found, once a week a freeze with a crash to desktop, etc. ... just to name some of the top of my head.

That one ends up in quite a different place happens to me daily. However, the progress like fog of war and looted chests shows where one was last and does not match. I think this is how the game is. It seems it can only place one at certain spots.

Looks like a mission named 'Second Son' caused this problem. I finished it in one go after restoring the cloud save and the game works almost fine now. Almost because the supply drops are now missing. Usually a plane dropped a supply package here and there containing crafting materials while I traveled the map which doesn't seem to happen any more and limits my ability to modify guns. I fully expect this to be caused by another one of the dozens of active missions in my questlog.
