[SOLVED] Autosave and Quicksave Slots in One Page

[KnotUntied]

Is it possible to design the filepicker so that it will display normal slots, autosave slots, and quicksave slots in a single page? If so, how?

Something like:

[NSlot 1][NSlot 3]

[NSlot 2][NSlot 4]

[ASlot 1][QSlot 1]

I am not quite sure that I can follow your sorting logic but it should be perfectly possible...

Disregarding the anomalous arrangement of the normal saveslots, can I have some sample code as to how it's done?

Saves are accessed via page / number (e.g., auto-1, quick-5, 2-1, etc.) so all you have to do is set the appropriate file action for your buttons. http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screen_ac ... le-actions

While I do comprehend the configurations of FileAction, my further experiments proved to be disastrous, and I was hoping for a small sample code to derive from.

Well, what did you do? Most of the time it's more efficient to troubleshoot existing code.

Code: Select all

button:
    action FileSave(1, page="auto") #Use FileAction / FileLoad / FileSave as needed

    has hbox

    # Add the screenshot.
    add FileScreenshot(1, page="auto")

    text "auto 1"

    key "save_delete" action FileDelete(1, page="auto")

Code: Select all

action FileSave(1, page="auto") 

As far as I know, this doesn't work. Normally you have to first change file page with FilePage(), then access the slots normally with FileSave() and FileLoad(). But even that I'm not being able to get working here - it's retaining the first FilePage() you initially do for the normal slots, and displaying another "regular slot 1" instead of "quick/auto slot 1".

I'm really curious to see what a working solution for this problem looks like.

Well, I used FileSave as an example, but quicksave and autosave aren't really done from the save screen and shouldn't be. Load works fine.

Using "i" in multiple ranges was causing the trouble. After separating one button from the range, the autosave slot I used for testing was functional. Many thanks!
