Save not working? (Games : Dawnstar : Forum : Bugs : Save not working?) Locked

At least once you've escaped the initial scene and docked, the 'SAVE' button is smaller than the other buttons and doesn't seem to do anything...

Certainly quitting and then running the game again and choosing 'continue' starts at the begining again.

Not really keen to put any more time into a game you can't save in really - could this be a permissions issue (run as administrator??) - where should save files appear so I can check BEFORE I quit etc. etc.??

Which version of the game are you playing? The save issue should be fixed in 1.022. The game actually auto-saves all progress, and we added a manual save button because it was recommended. There was a bug where it wasn't saving the player's current mission number properly.

I was playing both 1.02 and 1.021 - nothing saved after that first 'jump' and docking in either case, continuing started again at the beginning...

I'll download and try 1.022 and see if that improves matters - where "should" it be autosaving from the start of the game onwards??

The save system issues were resolved in 1.022, sorry about the constant patching.

The game autosaves whenever you change levels or dock.

I patched to 1.022 today and on starting that, it 'continues' from the spacedock I 'saved' at yesterday - so I guess there's a fix in there somewhere!!

Good to know, thanks.
