Saving the game

[demelone]

When is the game saved? Can it be manually saved at any point?

The game saves when you sleep everyday. There is no manual saving in this game. We are considering camping though.

Thanks for the info. Camping would be a big help to us explorers.

I think camping would be a great idea. I really don't like having to run back to the house just to save.

we need something, every time before i close the game i sleep and then close it. Every time i come back to the game i lost the last day i played and there is no save file to load for it

Looking forward to the camping feature! Would sooo love it :)

I'm new to the game and didn't expect this either. Maybe a small warning whould be nice (when you return to main menu).

the game does not save when you sleep. It saves when you go outside of your house. So make sure you do that before you quit

I've never had a problem with the way it works. I tend to like to finish a day anyway before I quit. I've never lost a day (or had to leave my house first) I'll fall asleep on the 5th, wait until the morning of the 6th starts, and turn it off. When I start it back up it starts right at the beginning of the 6th again. I also love if I mess something up I can just quit and restart the day to fix my mistake.
I did notice once that I waited until about 1:30 am and then quit. In that case, it started me on what would have been the same day I actually quit and not the morning before like I was expecting since I hadn't actually slept yet. That was the only time though and now if I happen to want to restart and time wise it is the next day already I'll just close the game without actually shutting it down through menus and just click the X instead. That seems to work.
The only thing I would like is to have multiple slots to choose to save to in case I wanted to go back like a week in time to change something.

When you go into the load menu, you can select a save game can click the "backup" button. AFAIK, that makes the game keep that savegame for longer than usual.

It does, it says saving the game, and more or less, once the game load you back into your house the next day, you know everything was done properly.

What, like seriously? It says "saving" while sleeping. This doesn't make any sense.

It saves while you sleep. However, wait until you wake up the next morning so that the save has completed before exiting. That way when you come back into the game, you are in your house and ready to head out and start the day.

And, just my opinion but I like the way the game saves.

I like it as well. Very few things not to like in this game.

Good the save function works as I originally thought.

Autosave would be nice tho, the game keeps crashing from time to time and unfortunately, I experience some occasional blackout, and even tho I saved my game, it still reverts back to the past 2 days instead of 1 when the game shutsdown unexpectedly. :(

I'd love it if the game actually paused between days. I've unfortunately dozed off due to playing to long with the relaxing music and woke up a week later.
