'A Permanent Resident' Event Progress Not Resetting After Save Rollback

Yes, event progress is saved to the user, not to a save. Not losing progress even if the game crashes or you switch saves is working as intended - though I think on some past events if you removed the user data file before the event ended, progress would reset. Not sure if that’s still possible or if they’ve made it more robust due to people having bugs where they lost past event rewards.
