Oh, my apologies, I didn't get to watch the streams, and I honestly don't have enough time (that could be spent playing/crashing DST :p) to watch them all in their entirety. Have you guys thought about having a page that has all the known bugs listed on it so we don't have posts clogging the forums with bugs you already know about?

Nothing to apologize for! Getting duplicate reports is actually useful to some extent because it gives us a sense of how impactful the bug is. We've talked about better ways to surface what is know and what is not. I think, however, that over time, this forum will just become that: we've found a bunch of stuff ourselves, and eventually most of that will get reported here. After that, the forum will be a pretty accurate representation of what we're aware of and what we're not.

I've actually had the opposite problem: I resumed server as a Ghost and the entire map was revealed as if I'd used the reveal all command. This however disappeared when I was resurrected and had to rediscover the map to find my way back. 

I just had something similar as Warpspeed10... the map erased when I quit-and-rejoined, of course, so I used the console to reveal it. The terrain was revealed fully, but the actual entities were not. They only showed on the map as I re-explored the areas. I haven't died even once, so it's not ghost-related for me. My partner (the host) was able to reveal the map as-normal, so the issue is on my side (seems like most are on the client-side currently).

This is a problem with our saving: we're not properly serializing the map data when you quit (meaning that when you rejoin, it'll be gone). It's one of the high priority bugs on Mark's plate, so it should get fixed before too long. Trust me, I know how frustrating this can be!

I rejoined the server as a ghost and everything was revealed!! rocks grass tallbird nests..everything!!!

And when you resurrect, it will all DISAPPEAR, even stuff you explored before. I can't decide what's more annoying sometimes.
