Okay, for some reason I cannot disable the autosave feature. I find that they are unnecessary and they clutter the save folder, so I really don't want the feature present in my game (I won't include an option to load them anyway due to the way they work).
by placing it in the options script, as well as changing the variable of the autosave frequency timer to 0, but neither one worked and autosaves are still generating in the save folder. I've tried using it on the last three versions of renpy but it's still happening. Is there another way to disable it, or any reason why it's not working for me?
That's just to remove the ability to load the autosaves. What I want is not have the ability to generate autosaves.
EDIT: Huh, seems to be working for the time being. I remember it not working for me when I removed that on the last version with the has_autosave set to false. Anyway, thanks .
It seems ren'py always make a save file (auto-X-LT1.save) when I close the application. I think the config.has_autosave only changes the in-game behavior?
