Hello Engineer,

Have you tried using Playstation tools to remove some of the saved data? It's in the Settings/Storage/Saved Data. Please try and let us know if it helps.

Thank you.

Hello Engineer,

We've managed to reproduce the issue on our side. We've added it to our internal system. We will update this thread when we know more.

Thank you.

I started having the same issue yesterday. I deleted some save files and blueprints but it did not help.

When I checked the save file size on the PS5 console and cloud storage it is more than 1GB in size.

It’s the same for me a fix would be awesome right about now!

Still an ongoing issue. Submitted a ticket and no response. This needs to be addressed and fixed. I'd like to be able to enjoy the content I purchased.

I'm having the same problem

Has this bin going on for 7 days now

12 vote same issue now I can't do nothing

Getting this as well I can no longer play

I've got the same problem and my it also says my BP list is full

HI, I am also experiencing this issue since yesterday. I was playing the "learn to Suvive" Scenario and at some point I got this message for the forst time.

Now I can load one of the 2 remaining savegames, but saving is not possible (sometimes without any message). As the message appeared for the first time I removed more and more of my saves, but this did not help at all!

I also tried to re-install the game, but this also did not help.

In addition to not being able to continue playing that scenario I also can not start one of the others! The only thing, that currently seem to work is joining a server and here, it seems, that G-Portal Servers are more stable than those of Nitrado...

I hope this help and we get a solution as fast as possible...

Pretty messed up thread is now 8 days old and no patch I am pretty sure most of us spent 70 bucks on this game also u only have 30 days to get a refund for the game and about third of that time none of us can play keen is horrible about communicating what is going on and what they are doing about it

Come on now its bin 8 days fix it plz fix it fix it fix it

This bug is game breaking i can't even make a new game or save my work not even bps

Any idea how I go about getting a refund for the game I'm really thinking about it I can deal with minor bugs and what not but this issue makes the game completely unplayable and the have left it this way for 9 days now me and the 70 dollars I spent on this game says the is vary unreasonable even know o do like the game when it did work but keen is leaving us with no news no update no im sorry for the inconvenience or anything so I'm tired wait considering we only get 30 days to do a return and they now have use 3rd of that time with the game not working heck when I pre-order off of playstation it said nothing about it being a beta game I am not genipig when there are game test who gets paid for this crap yet instead we pay keen for not even a full functioning game. No thanks I've had enough

Ya in progress about time thank you keen 🙏 please God of clang fix it fast

Update did nothing to help

I was able to load some scenarios still no BP function and saved data still not loading or recording

I just can't save my game I can load in just can't save anymore

I saved it to the clowd and then delete it fro my hard drive it werked but i got to start agane and upload my BP to before delete of hardwire

Promise it's not fixed and now we have to wait another full week for them to try to fix it

Me too, only one survival world which is 605MB on PS5 storage and only 0.5MB in game.

Started over auto saves off get base going and bam can’t perform the operation. The patch did NOT help at all in this regard. Devs if you read and it helps… both my save data started this right around 16k pcu on ps5 but once that happens cant save although I can create new games. I’m not starting over again until this is fixed kinda sucks

Having the same issue, can't save any saved files and both internal and external storage is only half full. Tried reinstalling, deleted all saves except main world, uploading to cloud and deleting console data. But nothing works. Makes the game unplayable.

I just now started getting this issue aswel, I have a Total of 4 save games of which three are over 2.0 mbs. I am playing on ps5, this error occured first play session after buying Some of the dlc’s.

I sincerely hope you will be able to resolve this issue.

I had to delete all my save data on the ps5 AND cloud to get it to work again, at least for now, thank God I waisted a whole week playing this game... don't forget guys, it's in "beta" (games been out for like 10 years)

It is still doing it I hit 3.1mb this time now i carnt save agane

I got this message on the PS5 but there wasn’t anything for me to delete I only have 1 save, no blueprints, and no backups also my world save is only 2.0 MB. So I’m forced to stop playing my solo world until this is fix.

I now also have the same error message and can not save, so I can no longer play. Maybe a fix in 12 days, oh it’s been 12 days…

May not be exactly the problem, but I loaded up as many workshop blueprints humanly possible and got consecutive save game Errors, I removed them an it seems to fix the problem entirely, while I checked the saved game data I've noticed that it always hit 599.6mb and cough out entirely, but when it's at 100mb it works perfectly fine, I'm using a 1100 Model Playstation 5, this seems to be a problem for playstations in general, but there's games that overcome it like Minecraft and some other games completely different that have the same problem, like Fallout 4, Incase you have the problem upload your save data and delete the one on your console, might be best to wait out till keen can fix the issue I reckon.

It's still doing it

We are having the same issue, the message shows 1 time when it saves and it never shows again when autosave or you save later manually so we thought the issue was gone but it never saved all the work during the session with no other warnings. Save game was 700mb and there is only 1 file and instructions are not apparent how to resolve the issue.

When will the next update be

I just got an update and it did nuthing for me

I'm on 1.000.006 now

After the newest “update” this bug is still happening to me.

After a while with this bug I deleted the game and reinstalled to see what will happened and now it says “An error occurred while loading the world. The world may be corrupted and can’t be loaded. Please, restart the game and try again.”

Hello Engineers,

Thank you for participating in our PlayStation Beta for Space Engineers.

Please try the following steps:

1) Update to the latest version

2) Upload any saves and blueprints you wish to keep to mod.io

3) Delete all Saved Data. That includes Console Storage and Cloud Storage

4) Restart the game

Please let us know if these steps have helped with the issue.

To reiterate, we can confirm that the current save data limit is at 1.08Gb. This is intended and is a PlayStation requirement.

To reduce the size of your saves you can disable the backup function by setting the backup value to zero in the Advanced World Settings.

We also recommend creating multiple saves just in case.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Keen Software House: QA Department

Error …There is not enough space for the operation, please, remove some saved games or blueprints.

Console saved data is at 768.2mb and there is only one save, so removing addition saves is not possible.

I also get in the main menu before loading the game that no backup file can be found.

I have no mods, one save and no backup file for ps5.

Why would I buy additional dlc’s with the current state of this game?

Why is the current data save limit so low? There is no way to play this game to it’s full potential with such a low limit.

I’m having all the same issues as those above but wanted to add: I’ve been through all the menus on ps5 version and can’t find the ‘advanced world settings’ to turn off the auto backups? So, even if I did delete my save data file (858MB) and start over, I’ll get to a similar point and it’ll happen again? We need a fix not a workaround please.

There is even a problem in the deletion of the backups. I checked the storage on PS5 to avoid errors. I play and have 2 worlds and 3 blueprints for 137.2MB. Then I create 3 new pre-existing worlds, like Red Ship for 248.0 MB, to be able to inspire me and see what is possible. Then I delete this 3 new backup but I stay at 248.0 MB. So I redo the manipulation with mod.io and download my two original words, knowing that the 3 blueprints are no longer on the local storage, and that these 2 backups are only 39.46 MB in storage, after 2 manuals saves and 30 mins of play in each world. (backup function is disabled)

Hello Engineers,

This is still an issue today 5/31/23. I only have two save files. Both auto saves are disabled and I disabled the 5 back up save feature for both. It’s only been 1 day since this was supposed to be fixed and IT IS NOT FIXED.

Interesting information.

So I published my world to mod.io then deleted in game save and save data on console and on cloud. Down loaded world from workshop and did a save as, same world save data on console was 768.2 mb and no longer able to save, now the same world that is able to save is only 10.5 mb in console save data.

I got this error this afternoon .. devastated me .. I lost hours of play , there’s no reason I should be out of memory .. but have one save game 1.2mb .. but the save file in my PlayStation storage says 1.2g .. I’m not sure how that’s possible ..I really hope this is fixable .. I fn love this game ..

Screenshots of the save files ..

Same with me and a friend, both our games won't save anymore after some basic building on earth. Makes the game completely unplayable sadly.

Hello Engineers,

We're currently investigating the issue. We can recommend using publishing saved games to mod.io to retain them and then deleting the whole saved data as a temporary solution.

We can confirm that the limit for game's saved data is 1.08Gb. It is intentional and a PlayStation requirement.

I've just got an update an still no change

It's bin 22 days now I have played For 6 of them and i have payed for a game and get a bata we have had 7 updated now and still I carnt play. wat a game sorry wat a beta

I Just deleted a few weeks of progress because of this bug. I started a new world got a few days in and same thing started happening. Weird thing i noticed my new game file in game says 0.5mb but my console storage is showing that file to be almost a gig in size. I deleted all save files and re DL the game several times before this so idk why the file size numbers are different from game to console. I would asume by this the problem might be the save files are stacking instead of replacing some how? Not sure but at this point i really want a refund, grinding out the slow painful begining over and over again is not fun.

I’ve had this game breaking bug before and it’s a pain. I’ve followed this temporary fix and it does in fact work. When you upload it to mod.io it will have the same name as the world. Go to new game, workshop, and select it. It will then ask if you wish to overwrite and click yes. I was then able to save it and continue playing this game finally. I hope this helps some of you

Seriously, how do we get a refund for this?

Maybe they should ask hellogames for help. No man's sky at least unfucks massive issues like this in short order.

Got home from work, PS5 let me know the game was updated. Been playing many hours on my first play. Bam. Hit with this game stopping issue. Come on! We deserve a fix. We paid good money for this.

Bonjour, désolé de répondre en français, mais je parle vraiment pas anglais.

Comment faire une sauvegarde des parties, quand ont a le message (échec de publication, mod.io.erreur d'accès au service).

Votre jeu est vraiment sympa, mais là Les bug ce cumul.

Cordialement

Honestly I don’t even know how to get my saves back off mod.io so now I’ve deleted like 70 hours worth of stuff

I'm on ps5 1.000.007 now and I still carnt play I did wat you asked. all thees update are for servers not singal player this game has bin out for nearly a month now and I've only played 5 days of it .it's a good game but this game should not have been released yet and I say game becoz that's wat I payed for until you get on the game it ses its a bata

So we are supposed to upload our save games to mod.io and then redownload them…

Then how come I cant upload more than 1 save game at a time. You are telling me no matter what I do I will still lose progress?

Thats amazing man you gotta love starting over and over again in a product you paid money for.

I love this game Keen. But saving is a very big and basic feature to have, especialy in a game like this.

Even if this fix takes long to make, please just let us upload more than 1 savegame to mod.io. Because right now we are all stuck to one savegame. Atleast I know I am stuck to one savegame.

Keen grate concept love thr idea for this game but since it's almost been 30 days that's all this game really is is just a concept since I have not been able to play and enjoy myself and you seem not to focus on the major issue so any one can play and enjoy them self im requesting a full refund this was not worth 70 dollars for as much trouble this has been for how long its been out to me this is vary unacceptable

It’s good to report your experience I agree and it sucks. You can play though. Playing on a server is wayyyyyy better and for the most part trouble free and you aren’t as limited. There are over 200 of them and the worlds are big enough where if you don’t make a beacon you can essentially play alone if you want. It may not be perfect but you can play

Also I didn't pay 70 dollars to be a tester for them I paid for a game with I thought I could enjoy but I can not also the is a career called a game test wich means they are paid to test games and report bugs why the hell should I have to pay 70 dollars and do there job for them

I do deeply enjoy this game and what it does. It’s a whole new avenue for games and I deeply enjoy it. However, this error that keeps showing up has completely halted my progress as I had just made it to the moon from earth and can’t save my “crashed” landing rebuild. I would greatly appreciate this being fixed as soon as possible so that I can go back to enjoying such a great game

The most disappointing part of this issue is that there was a hot fix on 6/1 and this wasn’t addressed. I bought this game and can’t even play it and no attention has been paid

I bought a small pve server just so I can play

I wouldn't either it was a waist of money it's so hard to set it up right I haven't even figured it out yet

Was that update for us becoz it didn't work

So guy 30 days are up and 5 days and games still messed to point where many can't play

Claude I can understand your frustration as we have a few issues as well that made the save games unusable: but with that in mind, this game is only beta and it has that posted in many places. This means you should be documenting issues and getting those back to the developers so they can make the game better for all of us. It has a long way to go before it becomes stable on the PlayStation. I think that they now understand that this save game issue is a huge problem that needs to be resolved based on the total amount of feedback received. I personally like this game and I can see potential as long as support can do a good job responding to us and capture what they need to make the game more stable.

If you did not see that on the store and was expecting a game without issues then you should return it and get your money back. I think that if you need help with an issue or if you have a question this forum is perfect as we are all in this together trying to figure this out but it really does no good complaining about something over and over again. Identify the issues, create an entry and respond to support when more detail is needed. If you see an issue with the store not showing that the game is beta then take a picture and create a bug report so they can look into it but for some reason I somehow knew it was beta when I purchased it. Not sure where I got that from.

Just got an update still no change

G,day everyone I hop thay fix it soon I convinced all my friends to get the game and now we can't save our progress this is a really great game I hope it gets fixed soon

I am also getting this bug too :(

Same. Brilliant game but pretty much unplayable.

i have the same issue, no mather if i'm playing stable or exerimental or with mods. The only workaround i have found so far is uploading your save to mod.io, then deleting the game and your save data on your console and in online storage then re-installing the game and downloading your save from mod.io

Hello Engineers,

Could you please tell us the setting you have for Max Backup Saves? This is especially important in the case where you have the issue present but only one saved game. This information would help us with this issue.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Keen Software House: QA Department

Mine is also set at default 5 but if I try to look at the backups it says there are no backups to Be found.

Still no change come on now 24 days now wat going on we still carnt play fix it plz and y arnt yous fixing it i don't understand is this game not that important to yous if so can you let me no plz so I no plz

Backup save is set to 0(disabled) and the auto save is disabled as well. I only manually save. And it will still get the save error message. Usually after two days. I will say that I am a saveaholic, I save after doing anything significant. But to be fair when we overwrite the save, the previous save file should be deleted but it seems that it’s stacking instead.

Sent from my iPhone

It even has started happening before my save file hits 1gb. (It's almost a daily occurance)

Past few times it has been under 600mb and STILL "tHerE iS not EnOuGh SpAcE for ThE oPeRaTiOn"

Games been out nearly 4 weeks for ps5. 1 year or two for Xbox and like 10 for pc.

Definitely the last Keen game i ever buy.

Backup saves set to disabled, auto saves is off, usually console save data stays low after down loading from mod.io (29.4mb), then slowly goes up to 200’s then jumps to 900’s and time to upload to mod.io again.

I have a private server pve thY you can use and I can spawn your blue prints in for you I got room for for it is password protected

I've tried all the "fixes" floating around the internet and nothing works. It always comes back.

For OP, you need to delete your entire save via the PS4/5's internal Saved Game Data settings in the options because the game won't actually delete them.

Set your backups to 0 and this also slows the return of this issue, but it always comes back, Keen need to fix it.

Hello Engineer,

Thank you for participating in our PlayStation Space Engineers Beta. And thank you for your patience with this issue.

We're working on a new version with a possible fix and additional logs in case more fixes are needed.

Please be on a lookout for updates in this thread as we might request more cooperation in sending logs or checking if the issue is present after the hotfix is released.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

I just lost 150+ hours of gaming thanks to their bullshit fix. Funny enough even the 150 hour trophy is broken. I paid for a game. Not a beta test. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.

Hello Engineers,

this problem is really not nice, it also cost me the first two rounds at the beginning. After I investigated this problem myself and thought about it, I came up with this solution here. Of course, this is only a crutch, but it is fast and secures my score permanently. I have no further settings (backup, etc.) Changed.

I hope it helps you until KEEN provides a remedy.

WORKFLOW

My current routine is that every day when I'm finished, I call up "Save As", choose a completely new, non-existent file name and then have to manually delete all other files in your list of available saves. That's the only way I can keep the size under control.

The great irony of a game about meticulous engineering that can’t fix their own gamebreaking bug

Hello,

Today we are releasing a hotfix (your game version will not change), for PlayStation 5 (PlayStation 4 version will be released later). We ask everyone who has problems saving on this console to please update. Please clear your local data before running it. Beware, you will also lose any (old) existing saves by doing this.

Procedure:

- Settings/Storage/Saved data/PS5 games/

- Select Delete

- Select the Space Engineers and press the Delete button

It is necessary to start from the beginning. This should prevent any recurrence of this issue.

Please let us know if continue to experience any issues. Thank you for your continued patience, and for working through this process with us.

Kind Regards

Keen Software House

My console data size has remained low and that is great, thank you Keen for fixing this issue and others that I have submitted, it is an awesome game, even better now, thanks again.
