Campaign Autosave File Build-Up

[J4MESOX4D]

I've only just finished the second campaign yet the game has already created 3.68gb worth of autosaves. These can be removed in your documents folder. Not sure why the game always duplicates new autosaves and I think even manual ones don't overwrite even if you select an old file.

woah savefile size has gone up a lot. about 20x bigger than in aoe2

I also ridded 2gb worth of manual saves. Developers need to improve this aspect because I found it was slowing my game down when in the menu. We need the option to overwrite manual saves and autosaves should be limited one per campaign mission.

If anyone wasn't to check their save game architecture it's in: Documents > My Games > Age of Empires IV > Users > [Your SteamID] > Savegames. The AutoSave folder has the autosaves unsurprisingly but the manual ones are located in the 'Campaign' Folder. The newest ones appear at the top by default so don't delete any you may need.

My game was chugging down and the frame rates were dropping, auto saves were taking upwards of 15 seconds to complete, and I have this stored on an M.2 SSD. Looking in the Auto save folder and my eyes bugged out with all the auto saves totaling 2.27g.

Devs. you really need to clean this up, limit auto saves to like 5, or give us the option to set a limit.
