In preparation for the contest I worked up a design in my current game. Then going to the save directory, in this case Game 7, to find ... nothing. The entire directory shows zero files. A rather panicked restart of the game finds I can even load specify game 7 to load and it does just fine. Yet in the file folder there isn't a damn thing. WTF?  ?? |

Is it running the saves only on the Steam cloud now???
Im baffled what is happening.
I told it to delete Game 9 in preparation to copy 7 to 9. When I do that my local folder is still on the old game 9 files as seen by the file dates of October of last year.

Are you in the beta by chance? .35 changed where save games are located: • Games are now saved to the directory "C:\USER\Documents\My Games\Rule the Waves 3". Old saves are loaded from the old save directory and saved to the new save directory. |

That'll do it. !*@#( so my last bug report and battle saves were from the old location a completing empty directory lolz |

Huh...
File structuring has changed with no longer individual files for ship classes. Probably loads much faster. Does mean I can't save the actual design file only send to the competition screenshots of it.

Steam cloud apparently has issues with saving and syncing (potentially up to) a couple of thousand files in a save, so the change was made mostly for that reason. |

Solving that sync issue was good thank you. It has some side affects though: = Currently its on the wrong drive for me and not even my assigned documents directory. I need to be able to redirect it. = We've lost the ability to access ship designs in other games. We used to be able to export, import and thus share with the community actual designs or keep our own barn of favorites. Please add an export-import function. |
