I hope that helps you!  

While I'm not a console player, they do seem to need to have that done every now and then.

Glad that helped, all the best!

As ai am getting very annoyed about loosing all my saved data as specially when it took me hours to build my colony on mars.

I am using my ps4 in case anyone wondered.

Did you try the steps above, THEN starting a new colony under today's new patch?
