Players don't seem to transfer over

[Kemerd]

Firstly, thank you for making this script. I am wondering if there is a solution anyone knows of.

My friend was a co-op host. I took his co-op save data, transferred it to a local Windows server, modified the .ini to use the world GUID. I noted my old GUID and his GUID being 0001.

Then, I joined, created a new character. Noted my GUID. I had him join, create a new character. Noted that GUID. Transferred that save over to a temporary folder, ran the script twice, with each GUID.

Then, copied the modified files over to the server again (while it is shut down).

I even tried with the GUID order reversed, but no matter what I seem to do, when I rejoin the server, it is always on the temporary character I made. Any advice?

Actually, maybe I was being inpatient. I closed the script after it said "Changes have been made" but never waited, it seems there was additional steps.. I will check to see if being more patient resolves this

yes it takes a while as the decompressed json files can be quite large (mine was 2.5GB and takes about 3 mins total every time I run the script to complete).

this seems to be resolved, but thank you for the clear and detailed issue! It makes it a lot easier to help when you have all the context necessary to help.
