How to quick save?

[malorob]

Just brought the game and i could not find how to save?
so i thought i would sleep in bed but still never seen any saving icon.

wish there was a way to quick save as it is 1:35am in the morning here and i need to get sum sleep so times like this would be great to have a manual save.

Hi, games always saves while sleeping. This is the only way to save your progress.

I know, but it would be more comfortable to have at least ONE quick save spot too. I often play occasionally 10-15 minutes in a pause of something. That is not possible in this game, cause you have always play a full day or your progress is lost (and I don't want to sleep midday, only to save and leave).

I tried this game yesterday after waiting for release and then for them to patch it a few times and when I slept for the night it did not save and I had to start over.

Strange, I am in the second season (over 20 nights) and no problem with saving by sleeping/saving in the bed?

I also have a problem with saving. I went through one full day and slept. Now I'm back to the game and there's a beginning cutscene again. I'm surprised that this game doesn't have an "exit and save" option, which has been standard in games for many years, it's no longer early access.

I tried to give this game 2 chance and I start the 1st day over again, but with the equipment and completed tasks from the previous day! I can't leave the cottage because I don't have the task of removing mushroom cobwebs and so on. The game version 1.0 is a disaster.

I need this too, we have frequent blackouts in iraq

I'm in on this too, with the quick save. It's lacking, and with the sudden crashes, the sudden emergencies and the sudden people/nurses and what not, dropping in. So, please do fix it with a quicksave option.

People who defend the "save only while sleeping" approach forget that days in a game where it works last 15-20 minutes (like sv), days in this game are much longer.

The game either needs to crash less or save more frequently. It randomly deleting the best part of an hour of play makes me want to uninstall it, leave a negative review and never touch it again every time it happens.

Presumably the crashing isn't a designed feature and there's limited control over it, so making the saves more frequent seems like the only solution.

It must be frustrating to not be able to get beyond the first day in the game... can I suggest that you report this as a bug in a new thread? That should get the attention of the devs. Check out the pinned thread "Bug submission guide".

My first thought on save issues is to verify the save location isn't being blocked by Antivirus Programs (protected Folders). There are 3 likely (but not always) locations for saves. Appdata, Documents, or the install folder. I would start there and see if those are causing. If that doesn't produce results I would report as a bug.

(Updated) I agree that we need a quick save ability. I have lost so much multiple times previously when the game crashed (has become much better since switching to DX11). I almost gave up a few times. The game crashing in the middle of the day before you go to sleep means losing everything up to that point, and all the progress made. I still would love a save feature beyond sleeping.

Game needs a quick save. 112 hours on my game only to have it glitch and fatally error. I restart it and it put me back like a new game start wearing the same clothes i was in and still having all my upgraded tools.
Until this game gets a quick save or better yet just a save outside of putting Abril to bed I'm done with this.
