WX-78's Field Survey does not persist across Steam Cloud saves

Similarly with Insight deployed Field Surveys are not present when switching across the devices (SteamDeck - PC) when playing on one save.

I have played without mods specifically to test new WX-78 on a fresh world, I initiated world by using SteamDeck and jumped on my PC to get back playing. While I'm aware that Insight isn't saved across Steam Cloud to avoid re-spec as per 

but in case of Insight you just need to wait to eventually get those points again which isn't as harsh as just losing resources you spend on Field Surveys. 

A workaround for it would be to just take the Field Surveys to the inventory, but unlike most of character-specific items/objects, this one is meant to be always on move and away from you, so while Insight might just be the case of time, switching between devices with Field Surveys deployed on your save straight up punishes you and forces you to dedicate one device per one save which is quite the opposite of what Steam Cloud save was supposed to help with.

Also regarding Insight–I have none on device B, but when I went back to device A I had all 3 points I got, but they were not distributed as I previously did–I don't want to make it Insight issue as well as this was already discussed, but I think it may be worth noting.

I haven't checked if this is the same for WX's Spare Bodies, so this might be worth verifying as well.

I'm new to Klei forum and this is my first post, so please let me know if I missed something or shall provide more information on the matter. 


Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a Steam Cloud save and play as WX-78 on device A (SteamDeck in my scenario).

2. Play until you get Field Surveys and deploy them to survey the map.

3. Save and leave the game, switch to device B (PC in my scenario).

4. Launch the game and play the same save as while playing on device A.

5. Check the map–Field Surveys are gone. Going back to device A will not make them go back.
