Terrarian
So.. I only started playing Terraria on PC about 4-5 months ago, but before then I almost always played on Mobile and Console Edition. I've never had this happen to me before and I'm for lack of better words.. perplexed? (The other worlds you see are my brother's. We have a Steam family and he's had Terraria on it for much longer than I did, I just never had a computer to play it on personally up until recently.)

I wanted to try Legendary Hardcore Mode on Terraria for the first time (I've been playing mediumcore with a friend recently and wanted to try out singleplayer), so I made a world for it. While it was generating, I was using Microsoft's Process Monitor to tick off random addresses in a different game I had also open to see how many it took before it crashed (I have a small background in computer software stuff and like to tinker around). I ended up trying it on Terraria and deleting a couple random addresses from it, and on the maybe fifth or sixth one, it crashed Terraria.
When I open it back up, I get greeted with a normal Terraria, so I go to see if my world still generated, it looks fine, I check the seed (basically religious after I got 69 in a seed once), and what do you know,

I havent opened it yet in fear of it fixing itself on world load, but I did try again with a random master mode world generation (the world named 'e' in the first image), and after killing like 12 addresses, I waited to see what would happen (it didn't crash), I look at the the world, and the seed is perfectly normal for that one. That one, I did end up exploring, and nothing was wrong with it.
So.. I'm just wondering if this is something that fixes itself after you load into the world? Is the world just not going to load? I'll open it up in the morning when I get home from a doctor's appointment. Giving myself some anticipation that maybe the world tiles just got jumbled and not the world being corrupted, so it won't fail to load and I can have a funky hardcore playthrough.
