Steam Cloud

[PaX]

For the love of god please add Steam cloud saves.... I would like to play my game on my laptop and my desktop.. But cant share the save!!!

Copy the files manually (USB stick).
Save games in endgame tend to get to big for cloud sync (> 1GB)

Steam cloud saves won't happen. Too big.

Hey @PaX, I ended up just using Google Drive - "Add folder from my computer"

Indeed steam cloud is free for us players but it cost the devs money and with large save files this game makes that price would be high.

Solution is to set up your own cloud save directory with Google drive, Microsoft onedrive, Dropbox, etc. They all offer limited free space but that should be enough for DSP.

how do you set that up to auto port over sead save file or send and load it form a different drive i just lost my save to a system cleaning did not know it had saved it to the C: drive

Should be setting in google drive to pick location. Just pick game save folder. Havent messed with it in long time.

If you don't have Google Drive, check out Gamesave Manager and its Sync&Link option - it moves the savegames into a cloud storage folder of your choice.

Steam cloud saves wont ever happen. The save files are WAY too large.

this is not an issue in endgame, but a bug that's existed since the game's release that causes the save file to explode exponentially as you find new worlds.
