Describe the Bug

User reported this in the discord, logging it here. When they load slot 1 with 170 civilian kills for whatever reason the cheat does not unlock. If they load slot 2 it unlocks. The save files are in the linked thread(get-count-for-enemy (-> *pc-settings* stats kill-stats) 'civilian) 170 #xaa 0.0000 #<invalid object #xaa>

I've encountered this, getting an additional 40 kills or so seems to reunlock it.

[Zedb0T]

In the example I provided the user had 170 civilian kills.

I mean 40 additional kills after loading a save where it was previously unlocked. It seems like it isn’t remembering how many civilian kills you have when you load a game in the first save lock, but can tell when you get 40 kills again. Something might be resetting that counter to 0 on loading.
