Common, persistent, unresolved issue with multiplayer.

Hello,

I have been reading around on Reddit and through the Amplitude forums and this issue seems very common and has (to my knowledge) yet to have any developer feedback.

One player will crash and leave the game (usually the host) and then upon reloading the save game file it will be stuck at "100% - Waiting for players". Then upon closing that screen the save will disappear and lose all progress.

It's difficult to convince my friends to buy and play a game that will sometimes crash in multiplayer and lose all progress. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

There appears to be a folder with the correct date and time of the crash containing what looks like legitimate error logs, here are those files:

I think that my ISP caused my network connection to go down and on repeatedly for around 20 minutes at the time, which could have caused the crash. However, the fact that the save game file is now unusable is the issue. Is there a backup of these files? Can I modify the save files to get us back to where we were?
