Can't load my permadeath map any more. Also I don't have backup.

If anyone here can fix my problem, that would be awesome.

Hi
at first, don't play permadeath wíth mod's until you allready did a playthrough with these mods and know its working.
Many mod's will cause some errors sooner or later.

Before you start a colony, you should try to elemintate error's which appear on game start.
I think you should have serveral.

At last all mod's should installed proper since you used stream.

But there are soo many "Could not do..." errors. I don't think there is an easy or even a solution to get your safegame working.

Maybe someone with better skills can help you.

Next time I won't make mistake of playing permadeath with mods, safer for my mood (-40 save died | 1 quadrium).

There was never an error when I start game. Probably they are shown only when dev mode is on? Played with almost exact list of mods in A17, it was successfully.

Thanks for your suggestions, I still hope someone can help me.

I had the exact same error today. Mind sharing your modlist?

Edit: Nevermind.... the only possible cause we share is More Furniture [B18] and I use that one with Expanded Woodworking, so thats probably not the reason. This must have been caused by something else.

Hello,

The issue is regarding a MOD called Minify Everything.
I've encountered the exact same issue, corrupting my save game.
Did some digging and debugging on my last working save, and found out that it was a buggy item created by Minify that lead to the corruption. (Reinstalling a Transport pod for example creates an extra item as well which doesn't have any values attached to it.)
So I've ran through the save XML looking for MinifiedFurniture item ids and found one with missing container values.
I did the same thing with your save, and found the same object without proper values.
I've removed it from your save, it should be playable again.

Hope it works. :)
PS.: Try not to reinstall Transport Pods.

"Error while loading a map" was solved by the above poster by editing the .rws file of the savegame. Open the .rws file in an appropriate editor (I used Notepad++). Search for all lines with "<def>MinifiedFurniture</def>." Working instances of "<def>MinifiedFurniture</def>" will have an "<innerList>" section afterwards that describes the state of the object. The broken instance (in my case) of "<def>MinifiedFurniture</def>" did not have an "<innerList>" section with descriptors after it. Delete the lines from <thing ... to </thing> (inclusive) of this broken instance. Your savegame should now work.

I wanted to share my experience with this solution to make it easier for others. Thanks to the poster who solved this (not me)!
