Hi,

I could not delete any of my old saves today (running 1.2, the save files are from 1.0.x). I launch the game, in the main menu I click the "Load" button, click one of these old saves, then click the "Delete" button. The list of save files reloads, but the file I wanted gone is still there.

If it makes any difference, all the files are cloud saves, and every one of them has a dot in its name (names like "gra 1.1").

I don't know if it's related, but I noticed that when I create a new save file (in 1.2), if I put a dot in its name, the name gets truncated. (So "Gra 3.1" is saved as just "Gra 3").
 
I'm not aware this is a problem in th enew patch, but it's possible I suppose.

If you make a local save can you then delete it okay? This only affects cloud saves?

When I make a local save, the name gets truncated at the first dot, just as with cloud saves. (Name "Gra 2.1" becomes "Gra 2") My guess is that if I had old local saves with a dot in their name, I would have a problem deleting them too.

Yesterday after posting this thread I rolled back to 1.0.6, successfully deleted all my cloud saves, then updated back to 1.2. From now on I'll just stop putting dots in save file names, but I don't think this is an intended game behavior.
 
I agree! Please make a new thread in Bug Reports on this, thanks.
