Description

Saves your progress at the start of each stage. You can leave run as soon as the stage started. Only 1 save file for each profile for a singleplayer. If you die, the save will NOT be deleted.

Import directly into R2ModMan

1. Save the zip file from the Releases section.
2. In R2ModMan, click on Settings on the left side.
3. Search for Import local mod in the search bar and select it.
4. Click Select file and open the saved zip file.

Multiplayer support

Only the host must have this mod for it to work. A Load button will be active if you are host and was found suitable save file (if save file has the same set of players as in the current lobby).

Game modes support

Each game mode (Classic, Eclipse, Simulacrum) has it's own save files, so that you can switch between game modes and not losing your progress.

Config options

• UseCloudStorage - Store files in Steam/EpicGames cloud. Enabling this feature would not preserve current saves and disabling it wouldn't clear the cloud.
• CloudStorageSubDirectory - Sub directory name for cloud storage. Changing it allows to use different save files for different mod profiles.
• SavesDirectory - Directory where save files will be stored. "ProperSave" directory will be created in the directory you have specified. If the directory doesn't exist the default one will be used.

For mod developers

Saving

To save data you need to subscribe to ProperSave.SaveFile.OnGatherSaveData. It will be called every time the game is saved (this happens on RoR2.Stage.onStageStartGlobal) to gather info from mods that needs to be saved. You can add any value with any key, but remember that other mods can do the same thing, so keep keys unique (maybe add a mod name in front or something). I would suggest adding only one object per mod because the type of the object is also stored to be able to deserialize objects, and it can take a lot of space in comparison with stored value. An object that you add in the dictionary will be serialized to JSON. Here is some info about serialization:

• Only public properties/fields will be serialized.
• You can add [DataMember()] attribute from System.Runtime.Serialization to specify custom name for property/field in json file.
• You can add [IgnoreDataMember] attribute from System.Runtime.Serialization to specify that this public property/field should be ignored on serialization.

Loading

Once save file is loaded you can get data you've previously saved and apply it anytime you want. Here are some things that will help you with that:

• ProperSave.Loading.IsLoading - you can use this to check if the ProperSave is loading.
• ProperSave.Loading.FirstRunStage - you can use this to check if run is starting. Is set to true on RoR2.Run.Start, is set to false on RoR2.Stage.onStageStartGlobal
• ProperSave.Loading.OnLoadingStarted - event, fired when IsLoading set to true (this happens after save file is loaded into memory, before run started).
• ProperSave.Loading.OnLoadingEnded - event, fired when IsLoading set to false (this happens after RoR2.TeamManager.Start because this is the last step of loading process).
• ProperSave.Loading.CurrentSave - current save file, you can access it after OnLoadingStarted. Will be overwritten every time game is saved.
• CurrentSave.GetModdedData<Type>("") - use this method to get data that you've saved.
• ProperSave.Data - under this namespace you can find classes used to save some of vanilla data.

Console commands

• ps_force_load {path} - loads save from specified file ignoring user identifier. For debug purposes only. The file is not deleted on game over, saving is disabled in a run started with this command.

Known issues

I tried to save all necessary data so that when you load the game would continue as it should have been without saving.

• Load Button is disabled when the player dies and returns to the lobby. Simply return to the lobby, select the game mode and click on the load button.
• Minions would respawn at different positions each time you load the same save file. It's not big of an issue, and there is nothing I can do about it.
• I've not tested this mod much with achievements unlocking, but for most cases, it should be working as intended.
