So my base seems to be stuck 1 level below where it should be. I don't know at what point in the game it happened, but when I started paying attention to it I noticed that I was a level below where I expected it to be. As I've unlocked more and more I keep raising the level, but I'm always behind 1. Now I've reached the point that the only comfort level item I don't have is the croc statue, meaning I should be at level 34, but I'm still at 33. I've done everything I can think of. I've counted up every comfort item in the menu and quadruple checked everything, read and watched multiple guides to make sure I didn't miss anything, and all I have left is the croc statue. Why am I still at 33?
