So I was doing some secret hunting in TSS, and saw in the restore screen that I missed a secret in The Scorching Path level. But using my main save I couldn't find it on the map. I wanted to check what levels are before, and after. Taking the exit (witch is one way), I end up on the top of the map with Fire Hotlands as the only available level. Going back from the entrance of The Scorching Path dumps me on the top of the overworld map as well, however there are no levels to choose from, meaning you're totally stuck and need to restore.

If it's relevant I just recently updated to version 5.0.1.6060.

Yes, there is a known issue where if you do a full installer upgrade from 5.0.0 to 5.0.1 that TSS map icons can disappear.

Originally I did simply upgrade, but now I tried a full reinstall. I uninstalled DROD, and removed the drod 5.0 folder in ProgramData/Caravel, then reinstalled. But the results were the same. It's not a terrible issue, but it is a bit troublesome. Am I stuck with this now? Or is there something I can try?

Sorry, I should have explained the workaround. Please see here:

Ah I already did a fair bit of secret hunting and by the time I realized. So I'd lose way too much progress at this point by going back and finding a still ok save, if I still have one.

Thanks for the workaround, maybe it'll be of use to someone. I managed to master the hold, so the only thing I really missed out on is having a nice save with everything done and

Upload your save somewhere and PM me the URL, and I can probably fix it for you.
