bike bug

[vitalinext]

I play a single. Game loaded disc to 100% and crashed. After i lost my bike. I didn’t find it and take another one.

Now I was driving on a new bike and saw my old one in the distance. Old bike moved synchronously forward or backward. I tried to get off the bike. After I moved on lost bike, I tried to get off it too.  I stuck on this bike and it rode by himself. Me thrown off and thrown to the sides, losing health. After restarting the game, I lost all inventory.

This is common when the game crashes while in a vehicle. Although it won't help you now, if this happens again, take everything off your quick slot belt before getting on your old vehicle.  Then you can force the game to close when it bugs out on you and when you restart, you will still have everything and things should work normally.

 

Now, for this instance... The only way to fix it is to use creative mode to give yourself the missing items.  Follow these steps:

 

Press F1 to open the console.

Type  dm and hit enter.

Type cm and hit enter.

Press F1 to close the console.

Press U to open the creative menu

Use the search box to type in a missing item, such as steel spear.

To get the right tier, delete one letter, then add it back, then delete it, and keep repeating until the right tier appears.

Once the correct tier of the item appears, drag it to your inventory.

Repeat for each missing item.

When done, press F1 to open the console.

Type cm and hit enter.

Type dm and hit enter.

Press F1 to close the console.

 

Some things to note regarding crashing in this game.:

 

Your vehicle will always be somewhere.  You can press F1 and scroll through the console to find the coordinates where it is located.  Go there and you will find it.  Just be sure to remove items from quick slots before getting on it in case it bugs out.  I think you can prevent it bugging out by picking it up first instead of getting on it right away, but I haven't verified that.  Safer to take things out of quick slots until you know the bricks is working again.

 

If you lose your drone, it can sometimes be underground.  The easiest way to get to it is to press F1 and type dm and then press F1 again.  Press H to enter god mode and you can use Ctrl to descend and space to ascend and can move through objects like the ground.  Go to where it is and click it and it should start following you. You can then go back to ground level, press H and the F1, dm, F1 to return to normal.  I have heard it says that if you teleport, your missing drone will appear with you, but haven't tested that.

 

Sometimes a crash will corrupt the region for where you are located. This isn't a big deal if it isn't where your base is located. You can delete the region file that is corrupt (usually 0 bytes, so easy to find) and start the game and everything should be fine. However, if your had anything built or dug in that region, it will be lost, so hopefully it isn't the region where your base is located.

 

All that being said, you should backup your saves and worlds regularly just in case.
