Help section / Re: Game stopped saving!
April 05, 2015, 12:17:49 AM
Hey,

I can confirm that the issue surfaced with the latest patch on Sunday. I can also confirm that the issue also affects my installation on OS X 10.10. So I would count out any involvement of anti virus software. I don't have any on my mac.

Triggering the save command via console works. The game does correctly save. The log correctly shows:


5.4.15 09:03:25.4221 [IMP] Saving...
5.4.15 09:03:27.3450 [IMP] Saving: world snapshot ready. Writing it on the disk...
5.4.15 09:03:28.5108 [IMP] World successfully saved to slot_0 (path "/Users/Sebastian/Documents/AtomicTorchStudio/VoidExpanse/Saves/slot_0")
5.4.15 09:03:28.7700 [IMP] Garbage collection completed: 130,00 MB -> 130,00 MB
5.4.15 09:03:36.2744 [IMP] started undocking routine for NPC Ship Merchant (ID=20786) to -8.71;-287.77
5.4.15 09:03:38.9607 [IMP] Controls enabled for ship NPC Ship Merchant (ID=20786)


When just logging out via menu (save & quit), no saving is triggered. The log ends with:


5.4.15 09:04:04.5459 [IMP] Player ship "Seppl" (ID=19041) ready for physics

I'm also guessing that the autosave function works. I've been playing on my windows machine yesterday for a little bit on a new game. After quitting and loading again I found myself not quite where I had left, but not right at the start either. This smells like the autosave function was triggered in between and successfully saved the game. If you're interested, I can get the logs for that, as well.
