Regarding the issues with respawning in beds which are on ships.
I've run into this continuously this weekend, to the point where I have started the game over three times now due to losing my ship(s), beds and the map no longer updating properly. This is what I have found so far to be able to consistently end up in the same problem.
1. Create bed on ship prior to creating any other bed in any other Region
2. Leave Region, Make landfall in new region, create bed in new region (Make note of the lat/long where your ship is anchored while you are inland creating shelter/bed)
3. Continue to explore other regions, adding beds etc.
4. The first time you are killed (victim of cyclone madness) or crash in a NEW Region prior to ANY landfall in that region, the ship bed bug will occur
5. You Die
6. You receive Respawn dialogue. Note the X on the map showing where you died will NOT display your ship icon. Your Ship (and bed) will display at the LAST anchor point near the last landmass in the last Region you created a bed on land in.
7. You can select the bed on the ship and choose to respawn, you will respawn in the ocean at the last lat/long, the ship will no longer display on the map, and your company log will indicate the ship and the bed have been removed.
7b. OR you select the closest land based bed, respawn and still see your ship indicated in a different region. The ship will not show as removed in the company log. If you travel back to the coordinates where the ship is displayed on the map, there will be no ship and no debris. The ship is just poofed and your map is fubbared from that point forward.
I've had this happen on save games where I've discovered five or six regions with multiple bed locations and just happend to crash during an unlucky zone, or in a brand new game where I created ship, created bed on ship, created bed on the freeport island and then sailed on my first adventure and then died to stupidity after my first zone.
