Title: Save File Management?
Post by: Psyborg on August 16, 2013, 03:13:03 AM

I'm wondering if there's a way to rename save files, to keep track of solo games vs. multiplayer games with certain people, etc.

Do games get saved only when you step on a checkpoint?

Edit: Just answered my first question, I found where the save files are kept and managed to rename the one I wanted to remember. In the future, will you be able to name saves when you start the game, instead of it creating a new one every time you hit a checkpoint?

Also would like to be able to delete savefiles (all those saves I have with randoms who quit partway thru)

The save folder is Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Hammerwatch\saves

You can delete or rename saves to make them more easily recognizable.

i do think the load menu could benefit with some management tweaks, having a side pane that shows which players and classes where in the selected save or a small screenshot of the checkpoint area would help you determine which save is which at a glance. especially when the number of custom maps starts to increase.
