Continue menu/game save is broken
Branch: Live (Version 0.5.41698)
Report:
After the new patch on May 31st, all previous hosted saves are invalid and show up as Unknown status. doesn't mater on which save you select the top right shows " Dummy Server 21 " with over lapping text below it.
Lan server to password region is fine, just the very bottom right button displays both Host game and Join game at the same time.
I first tried to create a new game which loaded fine but after exiting out and trying to re-enter I see the same issue appears for it.
I've since tried letting steam verify game files, I've tried to copy and edit previous saves folders/files with no success.

RamzyDKI have the same issue with our dedicated server - however if i stay on that page they will somehow after several minutes get populated with info - still annoying though.

BleceSame has happened to me, I don't know if it was because I made an edit to the server and it somehow messed up or not. I 've tried everything and nothing is working. I can't even create a new server.

DragonKnightVelesWhile I do not know the issue itself, I have had it happen and a temp fix action was to go into your %appdata% v1 saves file and delete all files inside. It has since resolved the issue for me and not come back yet. I assume it was a corrupted save file or a setting in the settings file, but your guess is as good as mine.

PretzealI did that and it cleans up the screen but I still can't connect to any of mine.

DragonKnightVelesdeleting the saves manes you wont be able to get back to the world if you hosted it, unless you backed it up and replaced it into the folder. If your trying to connect to a server and its giving you this issue i would look at other post with server connectivity issues

ace wayward MergedBRANCH: None
REPORT:
Issue started yesterday (Tues 7 June), game worked fine before
What happens? - the "continue" UI screen is all jumbled and I'm unable to resume any game (see attached screenShot)
Have you modified your game files or installed any mods? - Nope, just some settings
Can the devs reproduce the issue? How? - I have no idea as it just happened
Have you tried any solutions?- I have restarted pc, I have verified my files, everything short of uninstalling and re-installing the game (which I really don't want to do )
For server issues, is the server Official / Public non-official / Private? - private solo

CutieMapNerdOfficial Noctis server has corrupted save file two times in 3 days (first on the 5th, has to entirely restart character... then today on the 8th).
Server shows "unknown status". You have to completely restart ALL progress again when this occurs.
Logging bug for a family member. Feel free to reach out to me for details (name = discord username). -

NickSame.
Ideally I'd like to have a "Delete" option under "Recently Played On"
Dedicated servers appear to require a direct connect IP/PORT entry each time.
Or the Continue option to be fixed would be ideal :) -

DuckersSame here. Join/host server buttons are now apparently overlapping eachother, as i play on my local offline world, it now takes it as a online server and won't load the local server at all as it thinks it's a already hosted active world and attempts to connect to it. So just stuck on "connecting".
Tried to reinstall the game, but did nothing. -

Matt MergedAfter playing multiple times on local private non dedicated I am unable to see any local saves after hitting "continue". I have checked local save location and the saves are there - just unable to see them in game.
Sessions do show in recently played but unable to load from them - the button bottom right actually seems to have "Join Game" and "Host Game" both at same time and is unclickable. -

VMColonel#4364Helping one user (homieshake) who had this same issue, the issue was on his private server he modified the ServerGameSettings.json file and forgot to add a comma (which caused invalid JSON) this caused the UI to break as reported above, once the JSON was fixed on his private server, the UI worked as expected.
WORK AROUND:
Until the dev's can fix this, as a work around, in the console (after you enable it), and after pressing (`) or (§) depending on your keyboard layout you should be able to bind the IPv4 of SteamID to a combination of keys, for example, these will bind Shift + F1 to connecting to server at the named IP or SteamID depending on what you have access to. NOTE: That connecting to the SteamID will use p2p, this may help some users connect to places where IPv4 doesn't work for some reason.
Console.Bind Shift+F1 connect 102.182.127.163 27027
OR
Console.Bind Shift+F1 connect 90160937232683018 -

VMColonel#4364Helped another user with this who set a value outside of the range (The result was the same as before, the local server instance is broken) which manifested itself in the same way. Setting the value within range (as per https://cdn.stunlock.com/blog/2022/05/25083113/Game-Server-Settings.pdf) fixed the issue, and the UI now works as expected.
To the devs: It would be nice to change the status from "Unknown Status" to "Unable to start server" only for local servers that in a broken state -

Valentine MergedI haven't played in a few weeks, and now when I launch the game and try to load any of my saves I am unable to do so. The "host game" and "join game" buttons have been merged, and the server info is incorrect.
