#16364: Autosave never gets created (Z-Code)
----------------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: JoannaFalkowska | Owner: (none)
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Engine: GLK: ZCode
Version: | Keywords:
Game: |
----------------------------+--------------------------------
ScummVM version: 2.9.1
Game: The Gostak (https://ifdb.org/viewgame?id=w5s3sv43s3p98v45)
OS: Windows 11 Pro build 26100
---
Reproduction steps:
1. Turn on the game with autosave set to 5 minutes.
2. Wait 5 minutes.
3. No autosave file gets created.
---
More details about my case:
I played for hours, no autosave ever got created.
The saves folder is the default %APPDATA% one and it's writable.
I can save and load manually.
Autosave is set to slot 0, which is empty.
Auto-load is set to slot 0, which is empty, so it just starts a new game.
I was never prompted about autosave failing because of slot 0 being taken
(or for any other reason).
There is nothing being logged below the "Log opened" line.
