[Bug] Game reopens with sound

[MikeOShay]

I always have Master Volume muted, but it's unmuted again when I reopen the game. I've tried different combinations of force-quit and save+quit, and Steam Save loading, but no luck. Hopefully this can be fixed, I always keep my idle games quiet and so it's not good to have to keep unmuting it.

Just guessing, but this sounds like your setting isn't being saved at all. Have you tried checking the game files (both the ones installed and the save files) and making sure they're not marked as read-only?

Other than that, get Steam to validate the files just in case. Otherwise you'll have to ask on the discord.

Periodically my game will crash and when i load it back up all of those general settings are reset, but everything else is fine.

My game has only crashed in the last month, when it updates several days prior. It has crashed at least 3x so far, and each time all my settings are lost. It has also only crashed after my screen saver has came up (10 minute timer) and after my screen is turned off (15 minute timer), otherwise my Leaf Blower Revolution game has been running constantly. I do hate the music of all idle games, and call it casino noise. The kind of noise that hurts my head. But after I set my settings each again, and then save & quit again, then the settings load correctly the next launch.

This game now uses your online steam cloud to store your save information, and there is a setting for the Autosave interval timer. I have mine set for 30s, but it has not saved for 8 minutes 30 seconds... something is wrong here.

If your game is never saving your settings, you may need to double check that your steam settings allow this game to use your steam cloud.

The game's definitely using Steam cloud saves, I've closed and reopened it across different computers a few times.

I just tried again and this time it seems to be working. Maybe it was a weird glitch on my end, or there was an update that took a little while to propagate on my end. Either way, doin' good.

Same thing with me, my game crashes ever couple days or so. When I reopen it, all my settings are back to the default.

Settings are definitely being saved. I checked the options file which seems to have been updated correctly, and also when I normally quit and reopen the game the settings are preserved.

It's like after a crash, the options file gets reset.

Confirmed, game just crashed and the sound was back on. The crash also wiped out about 12 hours of idling too, which sucks
