I re-use my worlds between chars (Makes it feel like an actual apocalypse what with all the cars plowed through buildings and random fires I have a tendency of starting) when it saves it’s a little over 50000.
Recently I made a new char and went to cook some meat and it was (hot) (fresh) and (rotten) it was meat I had just harvested. I tried making eggs and oatmeal as well and it came out rotten as well. Not really sure how to upload a save file.
I’m not the one who can make heads nor tails of bugs, but If you get a dropbox account you can make a .zip file of your Saves folder, upload that to dropbox, and link to it here. Folks should be able to take a look at relevant information that way.
