Doesn't autosave after losing a battle (only after a win)

[andrewww]

While this could be intentional, it is annoying to have to manually save if I want to exit after losing a battle.

Definitely not intentional; will fix in the next update. Thank you for bringing it up!

Thanks,

Actually I think I was mistaken on when it doesn't save, it seems to occur after you are attacked, and doesn't save regardless if you win or not.

Looks like the bug is that in the current version it autosaves only during the player's own turn. After the next patch it will save after any engagement the player was involved in, regardless of whose turn it was.

To elaborate on the autosaving philosophy for anyone reading: it would make sense to autosave after every action so that no progress is ever lost, but the little delays caused by writing to disk are too annoying. Saving after battles and on new maps seems to be the best balance.

Yeah that seems the best way.

Maybe you could also make it autosave after exiting the campaign map if there have been any actions since the last save (unless the slight delay on exit is a problem).

That is a good idea. It makes total sense to autosave when exiting the game. I'll play around with the implementation.

The update should be out this week.
