How to fix a corrupted Terraria world
Start praying to the Terraria gods, 'cause sometimes it feels like only divine intervention can save a corrupted world. But seriously, regular backups are your best bet. Don't rely on auto backups alone; manual backups can be a real lifesaver.

One quick fix for a corrupted Terraria world is to restore a backup. Terraria automatically creates backup files (with a .bak extension) in the same folder as your world files. Just delete the corrupted world file (make sure you're deleting the right one!) and rename the backup file by removing the .bak extension. This should restore your world to its last saved state before it got corrupted.
Just start over. Sometimes a fresh start is what you really need. Who knows, your next world might be even better!
