Does anyone know where the bindings (and other config stuff) are stored?

[babycat]

I'm getting sick of fixing the bindings every time I relaunch the game. Does anyone know where in Windows that config is stored so I can just copy and paste it on every launch?

C:\Users\YOUR USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Psycho Patrol R

Open the `default.settings` file in a text editor. (Sidenote: The `backup.settings` file contains the actual default settings and keybinds.)

What exactly do we need to do to prevent it resetting every restart? Which one do we edit and presumably set to Read Only? I heavily modify the controls so it's getting right on my tits having to do it every single time.

Edit: Not to mention the resolution, frame cap, FOV etc is resetting also.

Thanks a bunch for this.

Setting the file mentioned in the post above yours to "read only" would probably do the trick. I also would assume this will be one of the first issues they fix. Kind of surprised the game shipped with such an obnoxious bug but eh

Thanks - so to be clear, is it the default.settings or backup.settings that needs changing and setting to read-only?

Looks like default.settings is the one that holds the settings/keybinds. From some experimentation, I think the issue is that it's not actually writing to this file when most settings are changed in-game. In my case, it was writing only a few keybinds as well as the resolution, but nothing else.

For a workaround, manually changing the settings in the file worked for me, No need to set to read-only, since the problem isn't that they're being overwritten, it's that they're not writing to the config in the first place.

default.settings should contain the custom keybinds and display settings. In my case, that file didn't actually exist, so I made a copy of backup.settings and renamed it.

Just realized today that the settings (both settings and keybindings) DO save correctly, but only if you press "Save settings" button on the top left corner of the Settings screen General tab (!)

Hadn't read your post until now but I just discovered this a few hours ago. Hopefully it's changed to prompt on change when coming out of the settings options.

You're absolutely right! I had meant to come back and update this bc the config file change wasn't working. But the tiny "save settings" button absolutely does work, lol.
