Problems with autosave script and save engine

Rabe_Rabg · Mar 22, 2023

I had some problem, such as not showing the first save file as "Auto". I changed the Yanfly script and made 11 save files. So that the first file is called "File 0" not to be like before "File 1", and then I changed the Vlue script so that instead of "File 0" it says "Auto".

The problem is that when you save there is an additional window where it also says "File 0", in my case it should say "Auto".

Unfortunately I have not found a way to do it and therefore I am looking for advice here. Also I need to make so that "Auto" can not be deleted and saved again manually like regular saves:

Also I have one more script from Vlue which adds options, there you can turn autosave on and off. Is it possible to remove the first save file i.e. "Auto" when turning it off? (P.S. technically remove "File 0" from the save list).

Here are the links to the scripts:

Basic Autosave

Thanks, but "Auto" should be in two places

Using the demo you provided, Auto was in both places

Strange, can you give a link to the Demo already with your version of the script? Then I'll check

Roninator2 · Mar 22, 2023

Not needed.
I simply added the script I just posted to the bottom of the list.

Great, I did that... Now it works, but I'm wondering why the autosave can't be loaded? Because the script simply blocks the ability to do any action and I just needed to be able to overwrite and delete it

ah, I see. you want the player to be able to load the autosave, but nothing else?
I figured you were doing this through some event where you ran a script command to load the save file.
Let me rework that and see how it can be done.

Does this work better?

Ruby:

#==============================================================================
# ?! Window_FileAction
#==============================================================================

class Window_FileAction < Window_HorzCommand
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------

    return false if @header.nil? && SceneManager.scene_is?(Scene_Load)
    return false if SceneManager.scene_is?(Scene_Load)
    return false if $game_system.save_disabled
    return false if @file_window.index == 0
    return true
  end
end

#==============================================================================
# ?! Window_FileStatus
#==============================================================================

class Window_FileStatus < Window_Base
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # draw_save_slot
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def draw_save_slot(dx, dy, dw)
    reset_font_settings
    text = sprintf(YEA::SAVE::SLOT_NAME, "")
    if @file_window.index == 0
      text = AUTOSAVE_FILE_NAME
    end
    draw_text(dx, dy, dw, line_height, text)
    cx = text_size(text).width
    if @file_window.index != 0
      draw_text(dx+cx, dy, dw-cx, line_height, (@file_window.index).group)
    end
  end
end

#==============================================================================
# ?! Scene Map
#==============================================================================
class Scene_Map
  def post_transfer
    auto_post_transfer
    return unless AUTOSAVE_ON_MAP
    DataManager.save_game(0) if $game_options.auto_save
  end
end
 
#==============================================================================
# ?! BattleManager
#==============================================================================
module BattleManager
  def self.battle_end(result)
    @phase = nil
    @event_proc.call(result) if @event_proc
    $game_party.on_battle_end
    $game_troop.on_battle_end
    SceneManager.exit if $BTEST
    return unless AUTOSAVE_AFTER_BATTLE
    DataManager.save_game(0) if $game_options.auto_save
  end
end

After that, the Autosave script stopped working at all, although it is enabled in options, I just need all the buttons such as: "Save" and "Delete" to be removed for the "File 0" slot, but for "Load" to remain

It should not work unless you are loading.
I can look to see about removing the text as well, but this is playing with the commands ~~so not so easy.~~ Currently it should show the save as disabled. I think I forgot about delete.
That was much easier than I thought it would be.

Yes! Thanks for help, what was needed, I think this issue can be closed
(P.S. i'll put you in the credits)
