Out-of-Synch Multiplayer "Living Characters"

Description​

My friend and I are having a problem with multiplayer. For the past few days, we've been getting a desync error called "Living Characters" — the error appears after just 5 seconds.

We have already tried the following:

Changed the host

Disabled cloud sync (Steam)

Shared the save file via Google Drive and created a new host

Adjusted game speed and data transfer settings

All players deleted their own save files completely

Reinstalled the game

Let the save file run in single-player mode for a while before hosting it

Steps to reproduce​

Host Game -> Wait for Player to Join -> Wait 5 Seconds -> Desync

Game Version​

1.16.1

Platform​

Windows

Hello @Thelem1,

Thank you for your report. We really appreciate the time you took and that you attached affected save file - this allowed us to reproduce the OOS on our side. I already reported the issue to our internal bug database.

I will now lock the thread as the issue is confirmed.

Thank you once more and have a great day!
