Can't load savegame after Pharmaceutical Company is destroyed

[andreas]

I suddenly could not load my latest saves. I get this message:

"Error loading savegame! Data is corrupt and cannot be loaded. Returning to main menu."

After some testing I found that this happen when:
1. I have a Pharamaceutical Company with the work mode "Powerful placebos"
2. I destroy the building (P C).
3. I save the game.
4. I try to load the new save.

If the work mode is "Genuine generics" this does not happen after destruction.

I have replicated the same issue with another map on a new save so it seems to be a general issue. I have all DLCs except for Lobbyistico.

What a weirdly specific edge case to cause a corrupt save

And an very well done bug report. Thanks a lot andreas!

This should be fixed with the next update, you should be able to load a previous savegame and the issue should not happen anymore when repeating the same steps. Thanks again for the report!

You're welcome!

When is the next update to be expected?

We are working on further improvments. Please keep an eye on our social media channels and avoid destroying pharmaceutical companies until then cheers
