(This is an old response, made before the description was made clearer)

Well, I guess one solution would be to continue trying to place markers. Treat the crash as "getting lost again". The terrain was regenerated, so (some of) the markers you placed while trying to get un-lost, got deleted. So you're lost again, just start taking small marked journeys again.

It can't be that simple, so I think I must have misunderstood your description. Are you saying that the entire world got regenerated, and the village, power station, etc are actually gone now? If so, how do you know that has happened?
