Alter save game location
I occasionally play this at work when I'm working late and waiting for things to finish (the dreaded progress bar!!!). The default savegame location is My Documents\Battle Brothers, but on my work PC that is a redirected drive and I believe there's something odd about how it's accessing it as it takes a good 10 minutes to save a game :(

Is there somewhere I can tell the game where to put my save game files that won't break Cloud Saves or am I stuck waiting for 10 minutes to save a game? Also, the game also stalls while loading a battle - I'm guessing it's doing an AutoSave of some sort.

Thanks!

I don't have an answer put I want to tack on an additional question. Do most people get delay after leaving a city? I find this mildly annoying as I lose a small chunk of the day each time I leave. Any known way to fix (may just be my bad computer)

pretty sure thats an ironman issue. it autosaves when leaving a city hence the delay.

There is currently no way to change the savegame/config location other than making the default one unavailable. Battle Brothers uses common Windows functionality for loading and saving files, so I wouldn't know why it is as slow as it is on your 'redirected drive'.

I've put adding a command line parameter on the todo for forcing the game to use another path (while not breaking the Steam Cloud feature). Should be part of the next update.

Goes to show how caring the developers are ;)

Has the ability to modify the save file location via a command line parameter or config file change been implimented?
