The game suddenly changed the location it recognizes as the proper place of the save files on my laptop. Up to recently, I knew it was C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\[numbers and letters]\localhost, as per the wiki. Then I got them erased by CCleaner. Null sweat, I keep multiple copies of them stored in other, safe locations, and I knew I just had to re-create the localhost folder and copy the save files back in it. Except, this time the system seemed unable to recognize their existence. Panic, then I made the game create a new, test savefile, and I realized it now recognized a slightly different path for its save files, namely C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\[numbers and letters]\#localWithNet. I copied my savefiles back into the new folder and now everything seems to work normally. This seems to be an issue with the last three versions (0.6.77-0.6.79) equally. I have not tested older versions. Have recent versions changed save location this way ? Is it a Flash Player or browser fluke on my system ? Should I expect other sudden changes in the save files' location in the future ? Just to be safe, I added an exception for  C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\[numbers and letters] to CCleaner.


I only play the downloaded version. usually while running Internet Explorer 11.0.9600.18449 (update version 11.0.35), with Flash Player 23,0,0,162. OS is Windows 7 Home Premium, SP1.

You're right, flash is now saving it as LocalWithNet on all I.E, Chrome and Firefox

Good to know. I see somebody has already updated the wiki about this, so it's ok.
