OK, started playing this game yesterday after watching let's plays of various other people for the past week. In explore mode, whenever I get killed (wolf, bear, leopard, whatever), and I go back to the main menu and continue, the game keeps re-spawning me in the same exact place I got killed with the same result... "You were shamelessly killed by xxx" and I can do nothing but start a new exploration game. What is up with this? Am I missing something, or is there a setting to control this? All of the videos I've seen of others playing, they are respawned at their original spawn point, and have to go find the place where there were killed. Why is my situation different? I'm on build 0.6.2.42636. Please help! Thank you.

Ok, will try that. Thanks very much for your help! And Happy Holidays!

When i get killed, I am on the same island AND in the very same spot where the leopard killed me. The screen is grayed, just like when I initially got killed, all my stuff is there, the leopard is still there, and my only options are to start a new character, or go to main menu. When I go to main menu and continue, after loading the game, it just keeps showing that I was killed, with the same options.
