Title: Autosave / save backup / save recovery
Post by: Hipster Scumbag on June 02, 2009, 10:36

It would be nice to have some form of autosave or save recovery.  About 20% of my characters die to game crashes for no apparent particular bug, so it would be nice to have a form of insurance besides manually backing up the save myself.

As an aside, I'm playing on a Vista 64-bit machine, and the game tends to crash randomly while I'm walking around or the game is left idle - nothing predictable or replicable.

Those crashes are most probably related to SDL_mixer. I hope that once that is fixed, the existing save recovery mechanism will be sufficient.
