Where is the local save data located?

[Taka]

I disabled Steam Cloud for the game when it nearly caused me to lose all my data (plus it took AGES to sync) and I'd like to make a backup of my data just in case, so where is the save data located?

C:\Users\[YOU]\Saved Games\Frontier Developments\Planet Coaster\[long number]\Saves

Your C drive might be another letter.

Woah! This game's save files are huge! I have over 600MB in saves...

Maybe you just have a ton of parks in there. My save folder is less than 100MB, but I don't have that many I suppose. 600 is heaps.

I also noticed Steam sync was taking a long time, but luckily it can be disabled per game.

Word of warning to anyone backing up their saves manually: this game is a little aggressive about cleaning its save folder. Any autosaves in the folder beyond the most recent three get DELETED when you load a save. Make sure you copy them over when restoring a backup, instead of moving them.
