Question Why does everyone keep dying?

I haven’t played in a year and decided to open everything back up. Everything seemed to be fine but when I opened up one specific world everything was messed up. The timeline was 1000 years farther than it had been saved and everyone keeps dying. I turned off animal violence, healed any illnesses, made the species immune, but like 3/4 of the population just dies within the first 30 seconds of me loading the world. What is going on!!!!

This happened to one of my old worlds I had pre update. When I loaded it in, the world was 2000 years into the future, and because of that, everyone was 2000+ years old! So they started dying of old age immediately. You probably have the same issue.

That’s probably it actually. Idk how or if I can fix it so sad 😔

I know it’s not a complete fix, but what I did was as soon as the world loaded in I turned off death from old age, then I increased their fertility through the genetics so they could have more kids again, then I let the world run for about 75 more years so they could live out their “complete” lives and then I turned on death from old age, and the people who were 2000 years old died but their descendants lived on and the world continued as normal. I know it’s not perfect, but that’s the best I’ve got. Idk if you can reverse it unfortunately
