For this RPG-ish VN I'd kind of like to have specific save points whenever you rest in a 'safe' location. Currently however I can't find a function that will pull up the save screen menu. I've tried a few things from standard show('save') to trying to call ShowMenu through the Function function, nothing has worked.
Weird, I swear that was one of the first things I tried and it didn't work. Well it kinda works now, but things continue to play while on that screen. I had hoped it would pause but that doesn't seem to be the case, and adding modal True doesn't seem to fix it either.
