How to save to local?

[Whipped Breen]

How to you stop Blueprints saving to the cloud and instead save to the local files? It was doing this at once, but now it only saves to the cloud.

There should be a checkbox in game settings that reads "cloud saves" or something like that.
Uncheck that, but first paste your cloud blueprints into a world so you can re-save them localy.

Another way to "save" blueprints is upload them to workshop. I had to reinstall game before. And i deleted old folders before remembering blueprints... Luckily most were uploaded so i recovered them.

Hi, first the in-game Steam cloud must stay Off like it is by default, because that will not save it but create a "Cloud Blueprint" and we "CAN'T edit/publish those.
(edited for correction*)

After that you are ready to create "Local Blueprints" that will be saved on your C: Drive F10 in-game.

Just aim at your creation and hit Ctrl+B = That will save it as a Local Blueprint on your C: Drive ready to publish on Steam Workshop as "Hidden" for Perso use / Backup.

More details on how to Backup by creating Blueprints :

Ctrl+B = Always creates a new Bp with different number at the end of ships name by default.

So it looks like this by default every time you create a Blueprint of your creation :

- Auto-named -
"My ship", "My ship_1", "My ship_2", "My ship_3", and so on every time you Blueprint.

= This way I have all stages of the construction and will delete some once completed and published on the Workshop as "Backup".

Sorry I made a important correction :

> "Cloud Blueprint" = we *CAN'T edit/publish those.



Edit
This helps a lot to know :

Everytime I try to save a Blueprint it never gives me the option it only wants to use cloud any other options are not clickable. Problem with cloud is that it takes a good 2 to 5min to load depending on the size of the ship saved for me.

Keep in mind we lock +3 months old discussions because the game is not the same after a update where old disscussions may contain false information, or discussions that don't have any activity so no new posts since 3 months. also to avoid community reports about "Necroing old" and it is in the forum rules added to pinned green messages.

Never be shy to create a new forum discussion if you want players help, one problem at a time so all players can help on one idea/problem per discussions that matches the game version.
