Update 6 (2026-09-21) officially addressed this work plans issue: Work completed before a save is no longer credited after loading. If it still occurs after updating, treat it as a possible regression or different cause, not a guaranteed repair of your existing save.
Match the symptom
Work completed before a save is no longer credited after loading.
Check before changing your save
Compare objective wording and visible completion before and after loading. A changed objective is different from a lost tick.
- Confirm Steam has completed all available updates.

- Keep screenshots and both save states instead of repeating the entire job.
Official fix versus your current save
The developer's Update 6 note establishes a historical fix for this symptom. It does not publish a universal recovery command or prove that a previously damaged save will repair itself. This guide has not independently retested your save.
Recovery decision
Keep screenshots and both save states instead of repeating the entire job.
- If the installed game is older than the named patch, update and retest the same action.
- If the issue persists, try an existing known-good save without overwriting the failing one.
- If it repeats, report work plans, the exact objective, installed build and reproduction steps to the developer's Steam discussion board.
