Start with the matching symptom
The tinyBuild known-issues page is the source of issue status below. If your symptom is not listed, that does not prove it is unique or already fixed. For a crash or lost items, preserve the save and evidence before experimenting; do not delete a save to test a workaround.
Slowdown, tearing and console rewards
| What you see | What is actually known | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Performance worsens during a long session | Publisher-listed issue with a specific temporary step. | Save by resting in bed, preserve the PC log if reporting, then close and relaunch. Follow the platform troubleshooting steps if it recurs. |
| Screen tearing on a console | Listed; no console-specific fix is published on the issue page. | Record platform, display settings and a short clip. Do not assume a PC graphics setting applies. |
| Console pre-order bonus missing | Publisher says a fix is in progress. | Install the bonus DLC on the console, then re-import and reload the Demo save as the publisher instructs. Keep the original save; do not infer cross-platform transfer support. |
Stuck stations, quests and rewards
| What you see | What is actually known | Safe next step |
|---|---|---|
| Garden well upgrade can be crafted again | The publisher says crafting that repeat upgrade may crash the game on consoles. | Avoid the repeat craft. If it already crashed, note the console and build rather than trying it repeatedly. |
| Corpse stuck on the crematorium table | The station may become non-interactable. | Record the corpse and station state. No recovery procedure is given in the current list. |
| Study Table stops responding after inserting an item for Science | The table may become non-interactable. | Record the item, sequence and whether the save still loads. Do not insert more valuable items to test it. |
| Town Warehouse will not accept iron delivery | The delivery quest may remain locked even after turn-in. | Preserve the quest state and record the item count and turn-in sequence. The list does not give a quest-unlock fix. |
| Soldiers receive beer or pie but you receive no reward | The missing reward is listed. | Record the item and dialogue; avoid spending more items solely to retest until the status changes. |
| Speech Volume does not change mumbling | The setting issue is listed. | Do not treat the slider as a confirmed fix; include audio settings in a report if it matters to you. |
“Record” is a precaution for a reproducible report, not an official repair. A problem being on this list does not establish when a patch will ship.
Missing points, corpse counts or items
| What you see | What is actually known | Safe next step |
|---|---|---|
| Research pickup is visible outside reach | Points can be flung out of bounds. A counter at 999 is separately an intended cap. | Check the pickup and counter before repeating the action. See the point-loss checks; no recovery method is published. |
| Morgue capacity counter goes negative after cremation | Exhumed corpses may be counted incorrectly. | Record the displayed capacity before and after cremation. Do not assume the negative number represents extra usable capacity. |
| Only part of a stack fits in a full chest | Excess items can be deleted during that transfer. | Leave enough room for the whole stack before moving valuable items. This avoids the reported partial-fit situation; it is not a recovery method for already lost items. |
When the issue is still happening
- Write down your platform, game build, location, the exact action and the visible result.
- On PC, copy
Player.logbefore launching again if you plan to report a bug; the publisher says a new launch resets it. Keep save files private and send them only through official support. - Use tinyBuild's bug-report instructions. For performance alone, the existing troubleshooting guide has platform-specific checks.
This is an independent symptom index, not the publisher's live status feed. Recheck the official list after a patch before assuming that a September 24 entry still applies.
