[E key no longer works with memory cannot be expanded error]

thank god.. thank you too chikorina for your response. 9,500 hours in this game and counting  and i'm suffering withdrawal symptoms.  this is one of the best games ever made and the best in it's class by far.. and i want to restore my good review of it on steam.  I can rest assured i will be able to play the game in the future at some point..   one thing i am currious about is what was the cause of this error?  can my game(s) be saved?  what was the previous report and findings?  i hope all that is not "classified"  if it is in the public forums how would i search for it?

[ERR NCSimple_Serializer (ch=0) EXC Memory stream is not expandable]

i have same errror .. memory stream unexpandable.. (paraphrasing) also in log on ly one entery stack overflow.. cause.. well i did it on my own home dedicated server.. it happened after hundreds of hours of play  also there was something being shut off (showed on console)  the only symptom of this in  game play other than consol poening with error messgage.. is that forever after my E key ( or its current binding) no longer functions.. i can run around shoot do everything i want except interact with E key.. (cannot open things cannot get on vheicals etc)  so i tried realoading game i tried rebooting computer.. i tried verifying files and folders for game and nothing helps..   if i exit and rejoin.. everyting works for 2 seconds.. then the error pops up again and once again a disabled E key.  so i left my hundreds of hours game.. and joined a public server.. where after hundreds of hours.. it popped up again  (i have about 9,500 hours playing this game.. and this only happened twice (or 100% of the games i have played in this latest experimental patch.  something in your experiment broke the game)  the exact same error.. afer close to the same amount of time..   its to me like a file got too big.. and so the memory stream cannot ber expanded limit was reached.. shuttind down whatever listens to the E key making the game unplayable.  I havent associated this error with drone  most suspect thing to me is sheer play time and thus file size.. of whatever files keep track of game progress.  again a reload of game.. the error is not existant.. till i do something in game then within 2 seconds bam the error..  also there is a slight roll back on reload.   solution is not to play latest experimental.. and pray.. what ever it is in the latest experimental gets fixed.. or all future versions of the game will chrash about 200 hours in.. destroying all your hard work ...   i have a ticket in on the same error .. but cant find it.. they probably not happy with info provided.

Bug Description:

 

Detailed steps to reproduce the bug:

 

1) play the game.. build a 10,000 - 100,000 block fortress with hundreds of hours invested

2) just play the game when suddenly.. the consol opens with this error

 

3)  now everyting works in game once you close consol.. excep the E key..  which will never work again in this game  you can join new games.. create new games everying works fine.. till you invest another hundred hours

 

Actual result: (description of what is occurring) E key (or any of its its binding for that function) quits working after that error

 

Expected result: (what you expect to occur) i expect to interact with items using the E key.

if  you reload the game it works for about 2 seconds.. then u get the error again.. and the E key becomes non functional  everything else works.. you can shoot you can move.. game is normal except never again can you interact with the e key or any other key you bind that function to.
