The next game update is a month away on itch and there is NO Guarantee it will contain the desired fix for this.
It is also shockingly bad when we get absolutely ZERO RESPONSE from the game developer at all.
I have been playing this game for well over 9 months now and have thoroughly enjoyed it.
Then something really terrible like this happens and we are expected to lose 6 MONTHS OF GAME PROGRESS.
The proposed solution in the comments is unworkable as I and others would lose MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF PROGRESS IN THE GAME.
When I tried restoring to previous GAME SAVE in the past I had to go back to a GAME SAVE which was made before the MISSIONS were introduced.
I nearly always have some crew members performing MISSIONS and earning Galatic Credits, which is why I had to go so far back to a GAME SAVE before the MISSIONS were introduced.
The trouble is the updates are released approximately every 4 weeks.
This has been a really bad troublesome update, I really can't do much at all in the game with so many crew members trapped or frozen.
It is unbelievably bad when the only proposed solution would result in me losing over 6 MONTHS OF GAME PLAY PROGRESS.
The quickest and easiest fix would be to strip out this Compliance Requirement which we are told is the source of this trouble.
