Exit and Save, then re-entering game - save position is NOT correct.

I have a world where "Save and Exit" seems to be totally messed up.
(it's a large world - 229MB)
The bahaviour is this.

Play the game for X amount of time.
Save and Exit.
Screenshot of the save looks ok.
Return to play the game later
Save position is NOT where left and game progression is in fact at some point in the past (often back at a previous save position - but not always - these save positions do seem to cycle too which is odd).

I have lost over 3 hours of game play with this bug and now it seems pretty worthless carrying on as you cannot be sure if the game has saved or not.
It appears to me that

  1. the longer you play without a save the more likely it will not save and you it will save at a random point somewhere between now and last save.

  2. The further you go away from the last loading point (I wont call it a save) the more likely it is to just drop back to the same point load point next time you play!

I have exported and re imported the world with no joy.

A 3 month old export I have of the world is unaffected - which implies the world may somehow be corrupted.
But thats 3 months of lost "fun" ... grrrr I don't want to have to go back.

If you want a copy of this world let me know and I can add a link as I said its quite large.

My son and I started an โ€œoldโ€ world to play. The next day we loaded up and played for over an hour. His iPad crashed for some reason and it went back to before we even started that morning. I have no explanation and donโ€™t know if I could recreate it.

I made a new world, played, made a huge house, got loads of iron. Then I clicked save and quit. Then came back to play for 2 hours next day then went away(Save and quit).

After a while after doing this, my spawn position reset and it switched to the last place where I saved the game, so did the inventory.

My 2 stacks of iron were gone, my diamond sword and pickaxe were gone, and it totally reset to the previous save. I lost MOST of my progress.

Even though the world stayed saved, the place where I had mined iron were exactly like that, but the player spawn and inventory totally reset to previous save.

VERY ANNOYING. PLEASE FIX. ๐Ÿ˜ž

However, this bug seems to be effecting ALL of my worlds in 1.2.8

Its not just annoying - it makes it completely pointless to play!

I totally agree with you, what reason is there to play if there is nothing that stays there as a reward in the end? It makes it utterly boring. All my 5 hours for gathering iron resulted in my inventory being the way it was, and the iron gone from the mines.

Try restarting the game. This is a duplicate of MCPE-29863, a known bug that should be corrected soon.
