Worked: 2.79
Short description of error
When opening hair made in 2.79 into 2.8, the hair dymanics don't preserve the length of the hair, falling and elongating infinitely down. On the other hand, hair made in 2.8 to begin with the same settings does preserve lengh and fall correctly.
Things that I tried that don't work:
Grooming the hair a little, changing hair dynamic settings, changing particle settings, deleting the cache and baking again.
The only thing that works is deleting the particle system and creating a new one, which wouldn't be a big deal if not for the fact that it destroys your grooming work and you have to start from zero, that's why I report it as a bug.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Open the blend file and press Play. Left is a particle system made in 2.79 opened in 2.8, right is one made in 2.8. The hair dynamic settings of both are the same
