confirm savegame overwrite
when we try to overwrite an existing savegame, we should be notified to confirm it, should we?
it might be useful..

Re: confirm savegame overwrite
usually after you saved it and you return to the main game window it says in yello on the left top corner: Game saved to (your savednamehere).game (idk about the extension, but its something like that), do you have that??
Re: confirm savegame overwrite
i mean if we try to save in an existing savegame slot, we should be notified;
i.e a dialog box with "are you sure, you want to overwrite etc.." and a "yes" and a "no" choice.
just in case we overwrite over something we want to keep..

It may be annoying. I think you must know what you're doing when select a slot to save.mcbask wrote:i mean if we try to save in an existing savegame slot, we should be notified;

Re: confirm savegame overwrite
Maybe a mod? That way only the people who wanted it would be able to use it.

Mods can't change that sort of savegame functionality. I suppose it could be an option, but it's really unnecessary.

Re: confirm savegame overwrite
Personally, I would like it. It would keep me from accidentally overwriting my advanced campaign savegames.

Re: confirm savegame overwrite
How do you do that accidentally? You have to click on the wrong savegame, and think "Oh, I clicked on a savegame I didn't want to get rid of. Oh, well, I'll just get rid of it anyway" and then continue typing and pressing enter. Who would do that?
Re: confirm savegame overwrite
Yeah, yeah..
after we click on a slot we are able to change the savegame name (or cancel it).
we shouldn't accidentally overwrite a savegame we want to keep.
i agree it might be annoying for some people..

Re: confirm savegame overwrite
I tend to save when I start getting really sleepy or tired. And I don't think clearly when i am sleepy/tired.

Re: confirm savegame overwrite
I finish when I am sleepy/tired. I don't start when sleepy/tired.

In that case, start earlier. Or drink something.Assault Gunner wrote:I finish when I am sleepy/tired. I don't start when sleepy/tired.

I usually only can start around 6, 7 PM thanks to my little brother, whose computer is the only operational one I can play WZ on.
