Auto continue mod - 257 player loads under map

This is a strange one. I was able to recreate the issue at least 3 times after I pinpointed structural solutions. Though it doesn't happen when I am not testing and not looking for it .... this is sooo wierd.. this doesn't make sense which makes me to believe this mod being the issue is some sort of false postive because I have successfully loaded the game without issue. the issue is it will skip the main menu and auto load the last save and put me under the map. It says player 257 has joined. I was told sounds like Satisfactory isn't connecting to the epic servers. I redownloaded epic, which had me also reinstall satisfactory. I searched google and I found a listing that stated it COULD be the windows firewall. Um when I try to allow an app through I cannot find the launcher. I am stuck now.

I forgot to add that the game loads fine with the others with this mod paused Something is telling me Im gonna have to start over on a new world Okay now im super confused. The issue happened with this mod paused even though I was able to recreate it with it 4 times in a row with it unpaused. I already reinstalled epic and sat How i found out is with the mod paused the belt modes are missing and belt tool was acting very strange as the belts were folding on themeselves when I make a bend on straight mode. Curved mode is missing and I do have 1.1 installed and tried to test a new save which crashed the game and now it wont load properly no more It wont load properly with structrual solutions paused or unpaused and I just tried completely deleting the mod and yep same thing I disabled two modes and I got it to load and now better alternate recipes is causing the issue > i deleted

It might be worth running the save through SCIM, it can sometimes help when there's bugged things left from mods you've removed
Newbicus
NewbicusOP•3mo ago
and do ?
Muppet Burrito
Muppet Burrito•3mo ago
If that's the issue all you need to do is upload your save to SCIM, then download it from there without doing anything else That process can sometimes help Otherwise, if that doesn't help, it might be time to binary test mods to see if you can narrow down the problem mods >moddebug

Hmmmm is there a chance you have Cartograph installed? Since 1.1 it is very taxing on GPUs

I'm a little stumped tbh But that doesn't mean that someone else won't see this and have an idea as to what might be going on for you 🤞

Tbh I think this info is not gonna be helpful for others though I think I may have found the culprit ..... I found a mod in my list called auto continue. This mod if I am reading the discription correctly does exactly what the issue I am having ... where it skips the main menu and auto loads a save. But I cannot confirm for a 100% certainty that this is it
Newbicus
NewbicusOP•3mo ago
Yep this video confirms it. So this is an intended feature. am I using auto continue incorrectly that would cause my 257 player to load under the map as stated it doesn't happen all the time ... It only happens with the menu skip is intiated

@Andre Aquila <Aquila Industrial> just FYI

Hmm. Good to know!!! Seems like its starting the game before the Epic/Steam log. I think i had to add a condition to it. Let me try something here to avoid this.
