Gamebreaking Co-Op bug (character resets)

[BenjiB]

I have been playing with a friend and we are multiple hours into our game,w hen I suddenly get the message "the host has left the game" and get disconnected. My friend, the host, didnt though and he did not disappear from communication either, so his net was fine.
After reconnecting I was playing a fresh character, not items, skills nothing.
This happened multiple times now.
I can live with having to recraft the basic items, but losing all my skill levels is making me actually hate the game.
Can we please get a confirmation at least that the bug is acknowledged?

Ok i think i got this figured out, there is an actual save icon that is slightly ABOVE the shelter, if you arent watching for it you will think that sleep is what saves the game, but the only thing sleep seems to do is update your spawn point, as opposed to your save point.

So there are two different kinds of "saves"
I will test this to be sure later.

This bug happens to me too: Lost connection to host (saved multiple times during session), on rejoining the character spawns somewhere on the map, not where he slept or saved, and everything is reset. No items, no prgression at all. Disconnecting and rejoining doesn't help. For now this makes it unplayable for us.
I hope to hear about this being addressed soon.
To be clear, I mean not only sleeping (which the character did too) but actual saving on a shelter.

I have experienced the same issue, tried to play with my friend and the none host kept disconnecting loosing all his stuff. Regardless if we saved or not, host and none host. We also tried having the none host saving and leaving to coming back but yet he did not have any of the stuff he had. So far we were having a BLAST on this game. We can't wait to get the fix! Thanks you devs and hopefully you get this fixed soon.

Keep up the good work. We can't wait to play

There's a lot of posts related to this issue. I posted steps I follow in one of them. So far it has allowed my wife and I to play without problems - mostly.

Many days have passed, no patch in sight.

I manage to find a temp solution like Staninja explained. Launch in friends only and do not send an invite.

We both (me and friend) got the game today, always looking for a nice game to play together hoping its not a buggy mess. And within the span of 2 hours ran into this bug 3 times. Too late to refund, but to others dont play this game if you want to play together.

As all people here me and my friends have also problem with isue related to "the host has left the game" error.It seems that at some point of the game, from unknown reason hosts game became "solo" game not multiplayer game and kicks all players inside. Wierd is that it happens only some time and only with some friends. I played only with one friend 6 hours straight without any problems.Then in 4 players game was pretty buggy(i guess sync of all the data of players was to much for the engine) and after 1hour kicked all players(then happening again in some time).

Hosting game by different players didnt change anything.

Hopefully fix will come soon, we love the game so far so cheer up guys and wait patiently :)

Patching is not always a simple matter. And it may be they will patch it with an upcoming updated and thus the delay?

"Many days" lmao. The co-op update is like a week old and there has been a hotfix patch during the week. Have some patience. It doesn't seem to me like they have a huge team working on the game.

Why did they take this game out of early access months ago if they are still releasing unstable core features?

I've been wondering the same...
