I will move to another city soon. How are the stats being affected?

E.g. nearest cache, furthest away cache, location..

This would also affect some challenges, wouldn't it?

Is there a possibility to "save" the stats and split them for each home location (i have seen the option to enter new HC with date in the GC-Stats program by MacDefender, but did not use it yet, because this will be my first change of home since i began geocaching, so i don't know how it works in that software)

Project-GC uses the home coordinates which are entered in your geocaching.com profile. When you change those coordinates the stats will use them, so you get another nearest cache and so on.
The MacDefender software can produce stats with several home coordinates, each for a certain period. So you may get different stats from Project-GC and from MacDefender after moving.

Thank you for the informations.

So i have to try to solve those challenges that would not fit anymore after moving.
Or i have to save a screenshot to prove that i fullfilled the conditions before.
Since you can change the home coordinates on the fly. You can easily set your home coordinates to your previous home take a screenshot of the qualifying criteria and then reset to your new home.
