Just like 99.07≦ :The path of savegames

July 24, 2009, 12:56:12 pm

Hello.

(I am a Chinese, so my english does not good.)

Before Simutrans 99.07, The path of savegames is (simutrans folder)\save
But after 99.07, the path of savegames is My Documents\Simutrans\save
I saw that is a configuration in simuconf.tab, but it is not working.

Code: [Select]

# This simuconf.tab will be read first => we set meaningful defaults here.
#
# load/save the files in the users or the program directory directory? (default: 1 = user directory)
# ATTENTION!
# will be only used if this file is located in the program directory at config/simuconf.tab!
#singleuser_install = 1

When I set it into 0, still the path is My Documents\Simutrans\save

Then, how can I set it?

(I want to play Simutrans in USB.)

you have to write

Code: [Select]

singleuser_install = 1

there, simply delete the '#'.

With singleuser_install = 1, the save game should be saved in the folder (simutrans-folder)/save. The simutrans-folder is the folder where the simutrans executable resides. For me it works :/

No. I can't see save\

I've edit \config\simuconf.tab and pak128\config\simuconf.tab

and both of them set into 1

You must write:

Code: [Select]

singleuser_install = 1

Code: [Select]

#singleuser_install = 1

is incorrect

If simutrans is under programs and you are using Vista or newer, then Vista will delete all savegames after saving them. To have this flag working, you simutrans must be installed into another path, like Y:\simutrans (if on an USB stick). Then you ust edit Y:\simutrans\config\simuconf.tab to get this working.

Edit:

Code: [Select]

singleuser_install = 1

Then try to run Simutrans few times.

(Edit config\simuconf.tab and (pak-folder)\config\simuconf.tab
