Duplicate Blueprint Books

Post by denebarry »

Version 15.x - latest version of 15.
I play on 2 different computers & use steam sync to keep my games up to date. If I make a change to a BP book in my BP library on the laptop next time I play on the desktop there will be 2 versions of the BP book. If I then make a change to one of these books next time I go to the other computer there will be 3 copies, and so on. Each time I change computers I have to sift through the books & delete the oldest version if I can work it out.

Thanks for the report.
This should be fixed in 0.16 because we stopped merging library store in save and external library, instead external library overwrites in-save library every time you load the save.

That creates new problem for you though, as libraries between your two computers won't sync.

I'm still on 0.15
Does this mean when I upgrade to 16 I will end up with a different blueprint library on each computer?

Yes, we might add blueprint library to Steam cloud sync before we release 0.16 as stable.
