I was doing an experiment by reloading an old save before the bug came by. The program of slime rancher was running throughout the entire process, even when deleting the newer save files.
The process was load the save, crack some crates, record the value, close the save, locate the save file directory and delete the newest save files.
I think at one moment I deleted the newer save files a bit too early. This resulted into a temporary corruption of the save, which can only be reversed by closing and re-opening the program.
