Exitting the game at the end of a day

[Uproot]

I may be wrong, or might have missed something. But, when I reach the end of a day, sometimes I have been playing for so long I'd like to exit when choosing night time roles and pick it back up from their again next time.

It appears that this is not an option, and if you force the game closed, you continue from the beginning of the day you were just on, losing your progress.

Is this something that could be added? I've probably wasted a lot of time from HAVING to leave the game to do other things this way (dealing with a child being the main thing!)

Many thanks

I understand this this is probably the wrong place to post this!

You are correct, it only saves at the beginning of the day after you finish looting. I end up just leaving the game running in the background at the start of new day screen or press Esc to pause midday and leave it running. Otherwise, like you said, you end up having to remember and redo whatever you did that day. The game is great, but has an inconvenient save system.

Game saves only at the beginning of new day - if you quit earlier, you'll loose progress. It's deliberate design decision we've made.

This makes me play sooo much more. When I come back from scavenging I want to sit down and make stuff, fix with the home, et cetera, so I usually keep thinking "okay, this is the last night, after this I'm quitting and going back to work" - and then I find something cool and instead think "oh, let's upgrade the workshop!" or "hey, Boris needs his pills, let's get him those before I forget".
