Swapping characters between single/multi

[JayNic]

Title pretty much says it all - but to be clear:

 

Is it possible for me to back up my character, then opt out of the online test and play the same character in single?

 

And could I reverse the process?

 

I have noticed that the map files are stored on multiplayer clients as well, so I'm just wondering if it's this simple.

 

Thanks

Yes! Just take a backup copy of your Zomboid folder, and you'll be fine. It *may* just work seamlessly. Don't worry about the multiplayer map copy you have - it's not actually complete, it only includes the bits of the map you've been on, and it gets overwritten as  you walk around.

hmmm... I swapped versions and tried to load my game, and the console is now throwing an error:
