Allelya 0 Posted December 29, 2020 I have a friend interested in buying the game. I was going to have him join my save (since you can do that if he hasn't bought it yet). But the game is not allowing me to start an additional exploration save. I don't want him to be on my save that I have already created- that's reserved for play with someone else Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiritchaser28 920 Posted December 29, 2020 Your friend would not be allowed to join even if you invited them to a different map except if you are online and had it saved as a sharegame. If they do not own explore, the game would only be available for them if you are in the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiritchaser28 920 Posted December 29, 2020 Best bet is coerce your friend to buy explore....it's cheap and well worth the money. So much fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now... can I or can I NOT create an additional exploration save or am I locked to ONE? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiritchaser28 920 Posted December 30, 2020 Atm you only have one. It will always take you wherever you left off in explore....your friend will not be able to join if you are not present if they do not own exploration DLC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you would like a copy of the DLC just ask me on discord https://discord.gg/cwETuMN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bojo2736 1016 Posted January 1, 2021 I think he will only be on your saved game if he is online. I believe persistent avatars in exploration no longer exist. If he has a ship, it will also not be "there." When I have been playing with friends, if they are not online with me, their stuff is not there on my game. Of course, any thing they built or crafted will be there, but not the player or their ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
