Duplicating save files, or prevent autosave?

A lot of times playing this i want to try something out, but because i don't want to ruin hours of preparation, i won't and it really takes the joy away. Like, would this escape plan work? Too risky, can't try.

Any way i can disable auto save or clone the saves?

just make a new save for that prison and try it out, i dont think you can copy a save or disable autosave in SP

Yeah, but what if i need a lot of tools to test something? Just to try, and maybe it's not even a point in trying.

try to do load, that is a save right at the autosave and usualy happens before you mess up. I did that when i was having an issue with loosing my items

Yeah, but sometimes it saves even if you have messed up. One game was ruined because it saved just after i had hit a guard, and had all my stuff on me. Accidental, but that save was ruined. Didn't help to load.
