Progress
So if I understand, in order to unlock perks I need to grind. But after about 15-20 runs on interloper i notice that my stats at the end of my runs are not being tallied in. In fact after this last run I started on tiberwolf mountain. But in the stats it says I have not even been there yet. A big ZERO. So why is my game not recording my effort in order to get closer to unlocking perks? My total calorie consumed for interloper is still the same it was 5 or 6 runs ago?

And your stats page only updates the max value from a run, so like Jay said, you have to do better in a row than in any previous run for it to update. Your 'total calorie consumed' stat might not change in a run, but the feat tracker could still increment.

If you are running the game in Custom mode progress towards perks is not tracked.

so I need to live for a complete 24 hours? maybe that is what it is. I usually die within the first 8-12 hours lol hyperthermia most of the time. So are we supposed to SAVE the journal after every death?

Saving of the journal is not required

ok so for a quick test i will run a different scenerio (stalker maybe) and what should I look for on stats page after i die to know whether or not it is or is not in fact working before i send in a ticket?

Aren't the perks (as in badges) gained by completing the required activities within a single run? It's been a while since I unlocked them, so my memory may be a bit hazy; unless it's my age . . .

Feats are cumulative

In the game, if at the selection menu, select Challenges then select Badges then select from the two diamond shaped icons at the top of the screen. These will be either Feats or Challenges Completed. Pick the left one.

If in the save game, from ESC to pause the game, select Badges then select Feats (the other choice is Challenges completed) since one cannot start a Challenge in a save game.

At that point Feats should show completed Feats/Badges and Feats/Badges in progress. I believe that the in-progress Feats/Badges would have a progress bar showing where one was towards completion but only as a percentage of progress.

Hope this helps. I think I got this right. Good luck.
