Yes, it’s an absolute chaos. This just simply can’t be happening.
Sure it’s just a game, who cares how fast the camera moves, or what panels are active. But that’s not the point. It’s my real time that I have spent on this, my real, valuable free time, and days of it, to set up this program. Look at my profile pic, it’s a complicated setup, so for it to take time is expected. But then for simple stuff such as settings saved in text or xml files to be deleted and have such an impact on what I invested in to this setup is just soul crushing.
I hope the asobo team can find a way to have all settings files backed up somewhere locally, at one place, maybe even manually by the user, so that if servers go bad, which again, I don’t blame anyone for, catastrophic deletions and resets don’t occur or can at least be mitigated.
We all know how much time it can take to get this admittedly incredible piece of software to run the way we want, so I’m sure I’m not alone in my desperation here, after spending hours in forums to get the setup working like i want it to.
