Hi everyone!
I've already lost a 100hr charachter to the early-access-player-hostile migration wipe. (literally went on pause after returning the character after they killed all the charachters by starting mission clocks offline and returned the day after they removed the button to return the character. I tried the complicated way of restoring it, it didn't work)
Last month we restarted with some friends. Today I log in to find both of my charachters gone.
I suspect it's some cloud issue, since my internet went missing and I naively tried to play Icarus in the meanwihle (it wouldn't even let me into the prospect). But usually if it's a cloud issue, Steam gives a warning. Here- nothing, straight to character creation.

launching icarus directing instead of going through steam doesn't let the game tie into your steam account, so the game doesn't know which profile to load. take steam to offline and launch from steam.

I launched through Steam when I didn't have the internet and it did have my charachter where I could try to continue a prospect (which it wouldn't let me).
Now, whether I'm online or offline, my charachters are nowhere to be found, it's just "Play- Character creation".

There are 2 folders full of files there

One of them is your steam account with your characters. Sounds like steam is giving icarus another steam id for whatever reason. Figure that out. Usually here its someone else being logged into steam.

One folder was empty, copying from one to another helped, thanks
