Client cheats stop functioning sometimes

So this is what I wanted to bring up, depending on the game, the trainer will just stop functioning either partially or entirely.

This more often happens when dealing with a game on a different platform, such as recently, using the Epic trainer on the Steam version of Old World, the cheats will stop working after some number of turns and afterwards will simply not function, even after restarting the game and/or the trainer.

What happens is often very inconsistent, some games simply no longer accept cheats, some of them will only work with some cheats.  

The one that sticks out the most is when the trainer itself just freezes up and stops responding to any keyboard inputs or even pressing cheat options directly.

I wish I could reference more specifics, but it really is hard to figure out when it will happen, except on things like Old World, where the break seems to happen on specific turns and even after reloading the save, will no longer function until making a new game, only to break again.

I'm not really even asking anything specific here, just hoping this might help a little in tracking down issues like this.  I'm very tired so sorry if this is a bit rambly.

Hey Deglorath! No worries, you're not coming off rambly 😊 As you've already mentioned, this behaviour is most often observed when using a specific Trainer version on a different platform, such as Old World. That's why we always mention that Trainers might be compatible between platforms due to some code structures differing slightly - sometimes differing only so much that cheats will work but not be 100% stable. 

But since you're mentioning Old World - we've already got a Steam version of the Old World trainer lined up which will hopefully solve those issues. Hope I could shed some light on that and hope you did catch a good night's sleep! 😊
