I cannot see if the homedir thing works, because my Username is in greek and greek letters are not accepted in epic games. Any workaround to this ?

Greek characters seem to be the issue, for now the only I alternative I know of would be to use a folder that doesn't contain greek characters as your -home="folder location"

Oh another thing. If I launch the game with the Diabotical Launcher in the install folder instead of from Epic Games it can’t connect to the Epic servers. I don’t know if that’s normal or not

That's normal, do you have Diabotical installed in the same drive as your windows installation? If you paste this in the windows explorer address bar %appdata%/Diabotical do you get to a folder? Does it include a DownloadCache folder?If you don't have a folder there try going to the Epic Games Launcher settings-scroll down to diabotical-click additional launch commands-paste this with Username replaced with your windows username, and see if you can download maps

-home="C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Diabotical"

Yes, I am on the administrator account. I also have windows 10. What is the ideal solution?

Which specific Windows 10 version? Can you try to see if -home="C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Diabotical" (replace Username with your username) works? The ideal solution would be to figure out why Diabotical isn't being allowed to create that folder in appdata because there can be problems when downloading custom maps while having your home folder set to a different one than appdata.

Is this still happening? If so what's your Epic Games username?

Are you on the administrator account on that windows installation?

What windows version are you on?

That suggestion is about going to the Epic Games Launcher settings-scroll down to diabotical-click additional launch commands-paste -home="C:\Users\Username\Documents\Diabotical" for example, but this is not the ideal solution at the moment.
