| World reverting to earlier state | |

Has anyone else had the experience of their world in C2 reverting to an earlier state? This just happened to me! There was no crash, and I haven't used the Emergency Kit. All I did was close the game and when I opened it back up dead Norns where alive again and all my Norns were unnamed. So what just happened? Is something stopping the world from saving properly, or could the game be restoring a backup from somewhere?
This is the latest version of C2 from GOG by the way and I am running it in Windows 7 on an administrator account. It doesn't happen every time I load the world, but I think it's happened a couple of times. |

I've not heard of that happening before. At a guess, I'd first check that the world file is not set to 'read-only' in the file properties window. I'd also exclude the game folder (and the "user\documents\creatures\creatures 2" folder) from any automated malware/virus scans you have running, as there may be a small chance they would prevent the game from auto-saving occasionally. |

It's not set to read only but there is a virus scanner running. I might disable that when playing on this computer from now on and see what happens. |
