I have a question concerning the Test Play option in the game: I can't seem to figure out how to save a test play so I don't have to play from the beginning of the game with every test play. The instruction manual said to use the script command "Show Save Window", but I can't seem to find it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Yeah, you're either going to have to make a save point somewhere along the way, or put a save command in your menu. There's also a quick save option in the menu, I believe. It's only a temporary save and it's only available in test play, so you're definately going to have to create an option to save somewhere at some point.

I am at work and therefore shall refrain form telling anything specific until I can confirm it, but I know the manual is referring to a script command so you can make "save points" and such.

I believe the debug menu has a quick save feature that should tide you over until more detailed info arrives.

Good luck with it.

Peace.

Ah, ok. I'll try consulting the manual...

Create an event using the "Show Save Window" command for it's script and activate it during play.

Ah, alright! Thank you! When you load, will you appear, then, at the same spot where you saved?

Yeah, unless you specifically made otherwise.

I don't know why I did not mention this before, but you can make an item that calls the save window and then you can save anywhere on any map.

That's how I do it in my game, along with special save points here and there.

And don't forget "quick save" (in the debug menu) for saving, going in and editing, then returning to playing to see what you did.

Good luck with it all.

Peace.

Warning: If you make a new character and try to continue from a saved game, the character database will become scrampled and the new character will have zero HP. Make all your characters first to avoid this problem.
