    Summary: inability to track account information over multiple devices

    Description: i often use nvidia geforce now application to play empyrion galactic survival game because on my pc it takes 20 minutes to load, only then to crash out into main menu, and then to start to load the game again, with the game has loaded the ship i quit the game from the last time is transparent to its environment, and crops die inside of it (it is completely unable to load in the required environmental data) - no, i am not trying to use my old laptop to play empyrion galactic survival, even nvidia geforce now application is crying about game performance everytime i leave the game despite it is on lowest settings in it

    nvidia geforce now application is running my game on a remote device, logging it in to my steam account

    recently i have started to continue to play on official eu server, and for some reason my progression with the auto miners were lost (despite i assumed the opposite due to it was promised that i would be able to keep it after the update that required servers to be wiped completely) - so maybe i was indeed supposed to be keeping the progression, however this bug might have caused me to lose it anyway

    recently i have subscribed to creations in the steam workshop with me logged in to steam, and with me using nvidia geforce now application

    the creations did not appear in my library in the game, however i got exceptions thrown instead in game (on which i pressed "continue" everytime it threw)

    i did not know what was the cause

    i tried to restart the game using nvidia geforce now application at least twice, and checked wether the workshop items i have subscribed to are present in my library, but there is nothing there

    even checking creative game mode there in nvidia geforce now application did not work, and so i desperately tried to run the game from my own pc

    when i looked at my saves i could see that on my pc i have not started a creative game mode game yet - so i made one, and i entered it, and there the items were right away in my library which i have subscribed to via logging in to my steam account via nvidia geforce now application

    i logged back in to nvidia geforce now application to see whether this was the thing i needed to do for my subscribed workshop items to appear there

    an error message popped up for a split second with "ok" in it when i opened my library there, and it vanished very quickly, i could not even click "ok" - so it was not the generic error throwing the game used to do with 3 buttons

    in that library logged in to the same steam account with nvidia geforce now application i was unable to find the workshop items i have subscribed to, despite i could see it already when i did not log in to my own steam acount using nvidia geforce now application

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1)dare to subscribe to workshop creations with your steam account logged in from a different deivce that makes the game at least load in with nvidia geforce now application
    2)find that no matter how many times you log back in, you will be unable to find items you have subscribed to with your steam account
    3)except on your own pc that can barely run the game

    Relevant information:
    i do own the game via epic games too, however epic games games are not checked automatically in nvidia geforce now application whether am i owning those, or not contrary to steam games, and i have not reported that i own empyrion galactic survival via epic games too in nvidia geforce now application intentionally (as i plan to be able to play with someone who can use the other account - as i own this game twice i want to leverage it, and am intentionally trying to not link the two accounts) - for example a person can family share empyrion on steam in the mean time that person is playing empyrion via epic games
    i also expect steam workshop to be unavailable via epic games - as i was able to subscribe to workshop items logged in to steam via nvidia geforce now application
    i also did not link my accounts despite the game tried me to (multiple times actually)
    there is an application called "everything" which i used to try, and locate my other account infomration (a possible epic games one) to no avail
    i have never tried to download, and play empyrion via epic games - since i am still afraid of you trying to see differences in frames - which has turned out to be right
    i am certain that the accounts match because even though i started to play on the official eu server with my nvidia geforce now application, i was able to log in to that progression with my own pc too (barely)
    i for example am also playing space engineers using both my pc, and nvidia geforce now application (because that is more available game i can actually choose which one i want to use), and i did not notice any such issues yet

    Suggestion:
    since you are unable to tell the frame apart in which the game is running, do not even try to (i am talking about account information differences, not save file differences)

    Something for me to try:
    i shall register a new account with nvidia geforce now application, report that i own empyrion via epic games too, and see whether that is the account i am playing from, or not
    - this might not work because that epic account is linked already to my current nvidia geforce now application account

    We do not support GeForce Now. Anything regarding that has to be done by them
