Continue doesn't load manual save.

Thought at first it resets all the codex entries after loading a save file, but it just ignored the manual save file, which was 1 hour newer than the auto save.

I don't use cloud saves.

that explains why my manual saves seemed to not work. I noticed this as well. Good to know for the release of the full game.

Hope they fix it, this like the 2nd game in row where the "continue/load last" seems to ignore certain save types.
Previous one was Starcom Unknown Space, totally unrelated in any other way. Though there it was ignoring the quick saves.

That makes me question now how many games have been there where I've lost progression that way, and I never noticed it. And how many more games will be there that can do the same thing.

New fear unlocked. Thanks for that.

Yeah, that's so f'd up.
Thought I was like yeah I don't use cloud saves, I've kept my saves since xp sp3 era, and never lost anything do to corruption, and now I find out that devs can mess the continue button up.
Guess it's manual load option only for me, for the rest of the life, but I'll commit to that if I find a third game that has a similar issue.

Dude, I wrote my own game save manager using Python and Rust for keeping track of my saves on top of steam cloud saves. That isn't even safe anymore.

Well at least it's a manual save, the auto save is overwritten the moment you load any save file, but the auto save is outdated anyway.

Cloud saves I will never trust, because it seems to have a similar issue where it can't understand what is the latest save file, from what I've heard from other people, unless they experienced a similar issue like here with their game, and then blame the cloud save for it.
Will never know, as I want it to be my own fault for overwriting or deleting my save file.

Drop the game because auto-save and manual save doens't work.
I don't want to start from beginning.

Manual save works.
Just check load save just in case or use only manual load.
Auto save also works.

So what are you on about?

If your problem is about saving not working, make another thread.
You prolly don't have proper privileges in your appdata folder, aka you're not admin of your pc, or run steam as admin all the time.

This is about "continue" not loading "manual saves".
