cut-paste the "save" folder inside one version's game folder to the game folder of the other (it will merge the save folders), or cut-paste all the files inside the save folder from one version to the save folder of the other.
that is, you mean 1) that you need to take the save folder from version 016 and paste it into the save folder of version 0.17 or 2)you need to take the file of your last save and paste it into the new save folder, 1or2?
Yes to both, depending on if you want everything or you only care about your last save. 1 will get all saves plus your settings like sound and always run (it's the file named config). I edited my original comment to clarify.
