Saving a game with no save buttons or screens at all. (help)

[beastcarving]

Instead of making a save screen and a quick save button, is there a way to make the game save on it's own and remember your spot in the game even when the game is abruptly closed. Is there a way to do this?

[Imperf3kt]

If you only ever intend to have a single save file, you could set up the game to autoload the most recent auto save.

I've never tried so couldn't suggest a way to do it, but I have made a button that loads the most recent (non auto) save file upon being pressed.

So I tied it out. I made one save slot mainly the auto save one. Then I got stuck and I'm not too sure where I got lost.

# I think I might have got lost defining the autosave and autoload. But this is where I've gotten to.

Code: Select all

init python:
    config.has_autosave = True
    config.autosave_slots = 10
    config.autosave_on_choice = True
    config.autosave_on_quit = True

# So the code here is placed in the script.

Code: Select all

        screen book1():
        # I have some imagemaps here: "..."
            ...
            ...
            ...
            if chapter1:
                if persistent.s == "autosave":
                    textbutton _"Read Story" action Start ("chapter1")

                else:
                    textbutton _"continue" action "autoload"
