Hi,

I happily played via Linux Mint in iron man mode. I always was connected to the steam cloud, but then yesterday I tried starting without connection to the cloud and started with an old save game. I tried again with the steam client online, but still only have the old save game left. What happened? Is there any solution to get my old save game back?
I barely have spare time for enjoying stellaris, and all of my time wasted? Please help me.
Current version is Herbert v3.2.2 (abcc)
 
What should happen is the game saves to the local Steam cache, then when you exit the game, that save gets synced up to the steam cloud, overwriting the previous one there.

If you then go offline on the same machine, I would have thought it would read the one from the Steam cache, OR not be able to find it at all. Hard to see how it could only find an old one!

In any case the only places saves can be are the local user Documents folder, up on the Steam cloud, or in the Steam cache which I think is Steam/userdata/YourSteamID#/684450/remote/
 
I entered /home/<COMPUTERNAME>/.steam/debian-installation/userdata/<STEAM ID>/281990/remote/save games
I found the savegame. I don't really know what to do now, but I fear it overwrote it.

That could be. You could copy it and place it in Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/save games to see.
