Hello Riley,
Thank you for reaching out to us on the forum and for sharing the screenshots.
Based on the errors you're encountering, there are a few potential causes:
Corrupted save file: If the game's saving process was interrupted, the world might become unreadable or unable to save further changes.
Running out of memory: Large worlds or complex blueprints, such as your frigate, can exceed the available RAM/VRAM, preventing the game from loading or saving properly.
Disk or file write issues: Insufficient free space on the drive, permission problems, or a failing drive sector can block the game from writing the save data.
Mods/scripts: Outdated or broken mods can lead to save and load failures.
Here are some workarounds you can try:
Check disk space and permissions:
Ensure you have enough free space on the drive where your saves are stored (typically `\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves`) and that Steam has write permissions for this location.
Verify the game installation:
In your Steam Library, right-click Space Engineers, then go to Properties > Installed Files > click Verify integrity of game files.
Load a backup save:
Within the game, navigate to Load Game, click on your world, and from the left panel, select the Backups button, then load a previous save where the world was functioning correctly.
Test without MODs:
If your world uses MODs, try temporarily disabling them to see if your save loads.
Free up system memory:
Close background applications before running the game. You can also try lowering game settings by going to Options > Graphics> Quality Preset and choosing Low or Medium.
If the issue persists, please send us the affected world save and the log file from the time this issue occurred.
Kind regards,
