Seriously, I recall this from the beta as well, anytime there was an update, it completely broke all my mods and I had to restart over from scratch. Its more then a little annoying to see that its still a thing.

Been playing all day, come back from eating out and I see the .csv got reset back to default, though none of the other files I modded appeared to be changed. I went through, readded all my mod lines to the .csv and it still doesnt work.

What changed in the update and how do I prevent updates from breaking my mods every time?

EDIT: Also, I JUST got done adding all my crap back into the .csv file, saved it, copied the save and now looking back through, all my changes disappeared? Really? What did I miss? What happened to this game in the last 2 hours?
