Crash save related to Single Combat

Pete Mack · March 12, 2021, 09:20

This is a result of single combat with Akhorahil (i think.) On recall, it crashed with "copy chunk failed". On restart, I was back in the arena with him. I since have successfully saved the game again. But I still can't leave the level.
I am hoping the game is not permanently corrupted. Compressed save is attached.

Good, I was going to ask for that. I'll need your randart file too.

I'm annoyed, I thought this was fixed.

I assume this is the randart file, from the user/archive folder. Version is 4.2.1 (Android build, fully updated.)

OK, this should work. The town will look different.

Thanks Nick. Am I playing too old a build? (It is the latest official one, but it's from last June.)

It should make no difference - 4.2.x savefiles are all compatible with each other. It might explain the bug though - IIRC that was fixed since 4.2.1.

EDIT: On checking, Sideways did a whole lot of stuff intended to fix Single Combat (for FA, but I applied them to V as well) after 4.2.1 came out. So any build after 12th August last year should have that in it, and so (hopefully) not suffer Single Combat crashes.

Thanks much, Nick!

Yes, the town is different--most notably, my home only has about 22 objects instead of being nearly full. Oh well, my current gear is mostly better.

Edit: never mind. I was misleading by the different lettering on the knowledge menu.
