I unlocked the bridge to the right of the brothel and closed my game soon after visiting the brothel. When I returned, I was standing in the middle of the water, with no bridge, unable to move. I'm guessing that was caused by the game autosaving at an inopportune time, and not saving the unlocked status of the bridge. The next update should probably include the ability to manually save, and possibly the ability to forcibly respawn in case a player gets stuck like I have.
Good point. A list of old saves to load and a "force respawn" button might be good. I see little upside, but big risks in manual save, but I am open to changing my mind.
I have autosave instead of manual save in place, exactly because it can ensure no one can save while on that bridge, which I don't think is what happened here.
Knowing about the tech behind it, I think I know what "stuck in water" bug you're referring to, and it being in the live version is a big issue. Thanks for letting me know. I'll look into it.
Shoot me a PM if you want the dev-version to recover your file. :)
Part of the reason I like manual saves is so I know when the most recent save was and don't have to worry about losing progress, but I can see how it could cause problems depending on how things are set up. Perhaps there could be an indicator when the game is autosaving, and/or an indicator saying when the most recent save was.
