Joining multiplayer from two different PC's, a question

[kyraeus]

So, I have two different PCs in two locations, both with steam and installing 7dtd on the second one. What I'm curious about is.. I connect to a friend's server (self-run, NON dedicated). Will the 'save' extend over to my steam-installed second PC? Or are there some files I might have to copy over from the initial PC that I played on previously to have the same character and sync over to the new one without starting a new character on her server?

Or, alternately, is it just impossible to use that same character while connecting to her game with a different comp?

putit like this if you have a player and game running you will not be able to transfer your skills etc to the 2nd game

Okay, but the question I have is why? Like, is it to do with a locally saved file, or the identity of the computer? Or something completely different? Is it something inherent to easy anticheat?

I have access to the original PC, basically I could easily remote into it (it's currently online and I have it accessible through remote desktop), so I could transfer files if that was the bottleneck. If it's PC name or some combination of connection ID or something that's a bit more difficult. Was hoping to get an answer from someone who's been in this situation before and figured out the issues with it.

I should clarify, the friend is running the actual server for the game on her pc, as a nondedicated one. I just join. I'm on same steam account. So if it's account driven I would think that should transfer over.

Player stats, skills should be all in the ttp file located in the appdata / roaming / 7 days to die / saves / game worlds played folder / game name folder / tada ... you is here ... your ttp file will have your steam id number ... This ttp file is the one you need to transfer to the server (same location) ... pretty sure thats how its done ... sometimes you just need to do this cause the game world kicks the bucket and dies

In older versions this will even carry over what your character has on them ... just be mindful of your position on the map as you could end up somewhere you wont like, lol
