About this mod Author’s original text

QuickSave

Sailwind only saves via autosave. This mod adds a manual quicksave hotkey.

Features

  • Press F5 (configurable) to save the game anytime
  • Uses the game's own save routine, so it's exactly as safe as an autosave
  • Plays the save notification sound and shows a brief on-screen confirmation
  • Respects the game's rules: won't save while loading, sleeping, in bed, or at the shipyard (tells you why instead)

Configuration

Edit com.roy.sailwind.quicksave.cfg (or use ConfigurationManager in-game):

  • QuicksaveKey - any Unity KeyCode, modifiers supported (e.g. F5, K + LeftControl). Default: F5
  • CompressedSave - same format as autosave. Default: true
  • ShowOnScreenMessage - on-screen "Game saved" confirmation. Default: true

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
