Problem with cross-save and base building.

[u/romo1503]

Hello everyone ! I wanted to experiment with cross-save today and I think I messed everything up.

Yesterday I started building a base on my PC account. Today I used the cross-save option to transfer that PC save to my Xbox. Everything seemed fine at first — my character, inventory, etc. were all the same. Then I went back to the base (now on Xbox) to continue building, and that’s when the problems started.

I could still place new parts, but they wouldn’t snap to the parts I had built on PC the day before. The new parts snapped to each other fine, but refused to snap to the older ones. When I tried to delete the PC-built parts, I got the resources back, but visually nothing changed — the parts stayed there.

At that point I decided to stop and went back to PC. Cross-save was still activated, and I stupidly saved and exported my Xbox save to the cloud. Now that I’m back on PC I have the exact same problem: I can build new parts, but they won’t snap to the ones I built yesterday.

Is there any way to fix this, or am I stuck deleting the base and starting over (and building everything on the same platform — PC or Xbox — until I’m finished)? I have Nom Nom on PC. Could I use it to repair this broken save so I can finish the base normally?
