How to save progress online coop?

[McBeer89]

My friend and i played online coop got some traits and stuff unlocked and decided to take a break. I went to the main menu and i said my progress would be saved. So i went back into online coop after and nothing we unlocked was saved. So is there a way to save that progress or not? Also i noticed only the leader of the game lobby gets rewards for quests.

When the host quits to the main menu/operating system, then returns and begins hosting the game again, one of the options for starting location (where you're able to choose home base, 1-1 etc.) should be "Resume Game" or something to that effect. Progress will be resumed from the beginning of the most recent level that was entered. Unfortunately client stats and items aren't saved at the moment, I will be looking into that soon-ish

As far as I understand there is an unlock system between the runs, do unlocks save for client?

[Madguy]

Yes, clients can get unlocks in online multiplayer.

Yeah, crazy frustrating - just found out after clearing the Slums, getting nuggets, going to main menu > Home Base that we lost all of the items we've collected. Cash, flamethrowers, etc.

So as it stands, I don't see a way for Online Co-Op to ever collect chicken nuggets, do well and not die, and ever get to spend them. Or am I missing something?

[Madguy]

Your chicken nuggets are saved between games, as well as all items that you unlock in the home base. But when you die -- just as in single player -- the character you were playing as is gone, including all their items and abilities.

Yeah i played more and noticed how the unlocks work. I didn't realize that they become selectable at levels.

Hello, @Madguy
I was wondering if you been able to implement the saving of stats and items in multiplayer yet?

Everything gets saved in multiplayer just as it does in single player.

Just had a weird issue where the client joined a re-loaded game to find all objects and gold missing from his inventory yet receiving the message "Inventory full" when trying to pick items up. HP was at same level as previous session. Client left and rejoined the session but we had same issue so I killed him, but he did not even respawn as a ghost from there.

Yeah I get the inventory full message every time I load into my friends game. I can never have inventory again I guess.

You sure this happened in the most recent builds? The inventory check is only performed on the client side, not sure why this would happen anymore.

Just played today, but the saved game isn't.

I am sad to report, that I still cannot play with my friends because of this bug.

A game on the most recent build is not fixed.

Would it help to send you save files or something?
