icon Challenges not syncing through Cloud Sync (+1)  
To reproduce:

Complete a challenge on one profile.
Load the challenge list on a profile synced to that one.

Behavior: the challenge is not completed on the synced profile.
Expected behavior: the challenge is completed on the synced profile.


The same thing happens if you export a player file and import on the second machine.

This was an oversight. I've implemented this in 5.0.1.6050.

I can't reproduce this. Maybe it was fixed for 5.0.1, but I thought it was working from 5.0.0. Maybe I need more info. Does this only happen when importing a player profile on top of a pre-existing local one or a more specific scenario like that?

I'm playing DROD 5.0.1.6060. I moved to another computer, exported my player, imported it on the new pc and all my challenges have disapeared.

There was no existing player profile on the new computer.

Edit: Here's some additional info. I copy pasted the DROD folder from my old pc to the new one without using the installer. It always worked for previous versions of DROD, so why not ? But here, I changed the folder path, so my profiles were lost on the way. I exported/imported my profile and it seemed to work, but I forgot to check the challenges right away.

I just reinstalled the game with an all new installer and tried to import my old player profile on top of my new one. Still to no avail.
