data management -> Import game from file

Describe the error

Hi! I played Crimson Scales last in April, then had surgery and a spate of my day off not matching my game partner's day off. I loaded up the game earlier this month to play, and we have no saved data. No worries, I thought, I do the backups. I pulled up the last autosave from April, but when the app tries to load it, it just...sits there.

I can load the last named save I made myself back in December of last year. It is 16 kb but I could play from that point because Secretariat can see our data from that time. I don't WANT to play from there because we have gotten significantly further in the game.

None of the autosaves from after that seem to work. I pulled up Notepad and I can SEE the data in the autosaves, but they are noticeably larger, 1822 kb-1966 kb.

Is there a format difference in the autosaves compared to manual saves? I don't understand why Secretariat can't read its own autosave.

Best, John

ghs-gameCRIMSONBACKUP.json Is the last file that it can read.

ghs-autobackup-2024-04-17T19_22_59.748Z.json Is the one I WANT to read.

Cannot test myself now, buf if one file is auto backup, then please usecthe "import data dump" functionality instead of "import game".

I think that this did it. I can see updated characters. Thanks so much!
