Summary0007043: Character progression reset after entering license
DescriptionAfter entering the license key, when I attempted to load my ongoing world I was asked to select a new character and found my inventory had been reset as if I was starting a new game. The settlement characters and world map were both unaffected. I'm currently running version 0.925 and have attached world data.

For 0.928:

* Previously if you started a world in trial mode, played for a bit, then entered a valid license key and stopped being in trial mode, and loaded that world you would have to pick a new character that would start fresh in terms of inventory, enchants, etc. This was because trial-mode player accounts have a different customer ID than non-trial-mode player accounts and it couldn't match up.
** This has been changed to: if you're playing in non-trial-mode and you load a world where there's no player account with your customer ID and username, but there IS a player account with the trial customer ID and the same username as you're using, then that trial player account's customer ID is permanently changed to yours and and thus you keep the same inventory/enchants/etc.

Thanks :)


For your particular case, since you've already created a new player account in that world in non-trial-mode, it still won't try to pull up the trial-mode one if you load the post-purchase copy. If you really want to get back to that trial-mode one you can load the pre-purchase one (in non-trial-mode). If it's really important to you I could try to manually convert the old player account to your new customer ID too, if you send me the save, but I'm not sure when I'll have time to do that :)

Ok, so once I update to .928 all I should have to do is replace the world data with the backup world data from just before I entered the license key? If not, no big deal - I may just start a new world and go from there, since I wasn't that far into the game anyway.
