Who did it

Post by redglasses »

Who designed the auto save, because they are stupid. Why do I have to go into the menu for it to auto save? Doesn’t seem very automatic to me. Fire whoever did it please.

I guess they figured you would have to be going into the menu every 15 , 10, or 5 minutes anyway.

Sounds like the auto save is missing the auto.

Since there is only one save file, I find auto-save very unpleasant.
Cause if I did something in the game that I regret, I like to be able to quit and reload the last (and only) save file.

How you gonna quit though?!
You can’t go into the menu cause it’ll overwrite that one and only save file!

I guess you’d have to force quit the application.

So why aren’t there multiple save files like in any other game out there?

You see the awkward thing is that time going into the menus, starts auto saving and crashes, lost 45+ minutes

I know right?!
It does get annoying.

I also save every time before I sell or buy something. Just in case I’ll regret it

I agree that having multiple saves within a career slot would be very useful.

Did you know that there are backup saves made in the folder that contains the save files? Documents -> My Games -> FarmingSimulator19 -> savegameBackup. This folder keeps copies of your saves in each slot going back a little while - I'm not sure what the limit is, I think around a dozen. So if you do accidentally save after making a mistake, you can grab a prior save and copy it over to the active save file.

It's not nearly as useful as multiple permanent save points, but you might find a need for it at some point. *thumbsup*
