[1.25] - Owned Building in Black Scratch disappeard

[wuff1233]

I hada building in Black Scratch that I used as a base. When I returned, the building was empty and available to purchase. 8 days earlier the building still belonged to my faction and had some furniture in it. In the town info my faction is still listed under residents.

Importing didn't fix it and my faction is not longer listed as a resident afterwards.

Addendum: Just noticed that some shops have now two vendors (one with money, the other one without).

Can you give any more details? For example, which building was it exactly? What steps you took before returning to find it had disappeared?

I get the feeling this probably has to do with the way towns set residents at the first configuration point. I suspect it has to do with the choice to write from the factions for some buildings and others add to that direct write. The addition, if not specifically sorted for, can populate all the various buildings left "unused". Though I don't know for sure since I haven't had the time to replicate it in full, it seems to towns are written to override "via addition" every time they go through certain loading procedures. This could then mean the "ruined building" resident is overwriting anything that has populated it. Just a guess.

Checked my saves for details:
- It's the Y-House to the left of the entrance of Black Scratch. Added two screenshots of the buildings on days 295 and 299.
- I had bought that house prior to day 200. It's an old base that I hadn't used for at least 30 days, maybe more.
- Both save game versions are 1.17.
- I use some mods, but as far as I am aware none that change or influence Black Scratch. Same mods in both save games.
- What I did between day 295 and 299: I was active in the sonorous dark area. Then I made my way back from a small base in the far south east to my main base in the middle of the map and wanted to sell the loot on the way. I passed by Black Scratch where I noticed that issue.
- Later I noticed that there were two vendors in the cities of Brink and Black Scratch, one has the Standard amout of money, the other one only a small amount (25 -75). As far as I know there is only one vendor per shop in Flats Lagoon and Black Desert City.

Update: I just noticed that two of my outposts have disappeared too. The map marker is still there and the outpost name is shown, but the buildings and walls have vanished. Both were small and currently uninhabited bases. I will add some screenshots.

This sounds like some zone files are going missing somehow.
Version 1.0.26 added a new log file (save.log) that should help fixing this issue if it happens again.
