Host world state
- World and quest progress remain with the host.
- Loading a host save should no longer switch the session into single player.
Guest character state
- Appearance, equipment, regular items, gold, skills and perks save to the chosen slot.
- Manual-save waiting and chosen-slot preservation received fixes.
Evidence boundary
Network, platform and old-save edge cases vary. Treat the official fix list as a starting point and record reproducible exceptions rather than assuming one universal cause.
