Returned to game after beginning research on Rifle MK2 (no idea if research had time to finish or not) -- in scanner, there is no response; furthermore, there are the following glitches:

  1. In MAM, several entries show as "N/A" with blank boxes next to them
  2. Lost ability to construct Rifle MK2
  3. Existing Rifle MK2 disappeared from inventory

Did you try to open an experimental save with early access game?

Good question; but no, I'm in Experimental right now.  Ticked at myself -- the game has been so stable that I've become lazy about backup saves, so I lost about 6 hrs of work.  So, to be honest, it really speaks to the quality of even the Experimental version.

Exactly the same issue today. Was part way through researching Mk2 rifle and now my game is glitched.

MAM issues is part of the changes they did:
"Excluded unintended research items from the MAM (Mercer Sphere, Somersloop, Rifle Mk.2)"
you just tested an unfinished Mk2 Rifle. I think it is fine they got off the game. I mean Rifle mk1 is not even finished yet. I am sad about the resources I losed to build it but hey, it is not a big deal.

@scorpking:  Having the same here now -- my guess is removing those other things (Mk2, etc.) is causing some sort of instability.  My game is basically unplayable, too.  So I started a new one and got 30 minutes with no issues.

Hopefully they figure it out (I know there are a lot with recurring crashes now) and we can pick up our saved games where we left off.

Yeah i think they'll fix it with all crash issue.
it's an experimental branch so we know what we risk

props to AVAGAX for the answer -- but since the info was left as a comment, I'll provide the labeled 'answer' here:

Turns out this is not a bug, but a response to a patch that I hadn't noticed.  The patch removed certain items that weren't intended to be available for research.

for more info, see here.
