What is “Save Guid” in General tab? What does it mean and what is it used for?

What happens if two of your saves have the same Save Guid?

What happens if other person joins your multiplayer game and has the same Save Guid?

Please provide the information about this.

Save Generated User ID I believe it should be the same as your folder name that looks like someone smashed their hands on the keyboard. It isn't important really just shows the users ID

No, it is definitely something different.

Folder name looks like this:
12345678901234567

And Save Guid looks like this:
8434664f-4527-47a3-9c56-b21086a798df

Also, folder name does not change when you create new heroes - it is always the same. But Save Guid is completely different for every character you create.

Save Guid is a random value that's assigned at the time of creation of the save.
The folder name your saves are stored in are your Steam ID.

Hello gibbed. Can you please answer questions from the first post?

What is Save Guid used for?

What happens if two of your saves have the same Save Guid?

What happens if other person joins your multiplayer game and has the same Save Guid?

I already gave what info I know. I never tested that exhaustively.

I doubt save guid is replicated across the network, so I doubt it has an effect with multiplayer.

You'd very likely want a unique save guid per character locally though.
