Was loading my game after saving and going to the menu to change some of my video settings and when I loaded back into it it says "game over press space to see your stats" even though I had full health and hunger. And upon pressing space it shows the RIP screen but with no stats and the game over screen is still present.

Okay, this is not supposed to happen.

By chance, did you have a console open, and did you see any error ?

Plus, what was the day in the game?

I did not have the console open I was using the .exe so if that still uses a console I closed out of the game to switch over to the .jar so I can see the console. As for the day it was day 9.

Extra info:
The reason I was changing video settings was because the game started lagging (about 1-3 fps normally running 60) whenever I approached a worker (untamed) at the edge of the map to try and tame it. So I thought maybe changing some settings might do something.

Arg, I imagine the lagging to be another problem.

By running some test, I was not able to replicate the bug you described.

Is it "bugging" every time you save/load the game? of was it the first time?

No that was the first time it has happened to me. I havn't gotten it to happen again. I'll keep playing through and soon as I hit day 9 ill try and repeat the exact same steps I did to have it happen the first time and ill let you know. Currently I'm on day 6 so I'll be there momentarily.

First off sorry to keep you up :S

Secondly I was able to get it to happen again. It has nothing to do with the changing of resolution or other video settings. I recreated it by after having a game saved so by doing a "Save & Quit" then going back into it and the next time you leave the game if you do just a "Quit" with out saving and then going back into your save it will then have the "Game Over" screen. Another thing I noticed the time will continue and once it gets to night the monsters can still attack you and kill you causing a second "Game Over"

Hopefully that's enough information to help you figure out whats causing it. I'm assuming that the "Quit Game" with out saving isn't meaning "End Game".

Arg -- I finally understand.

Yes "Quit Game" means "Abandon game".

I'll change the text so people are not misunderstanding it anymore.

Tkx for the report

Along with changing the button to "Abandon game", also make it show a warning popup that says etc: "If you abandon the game, it will not get saved!"
That will make it even more clearer, and so you don't accidently press "Abandon" instead of save :)

Ahh ok well thanks. Well sorry for the trouble it caused looking for a bug when there really wasn't one. I also agree about the popup or some sort of confirmation. That way it can keep accidental miss-clicks from happening.

Thanks again :D
