AutoSaver

Automatically backups your character save and Spike's inventory on game load, quit and every 4 minutes.

Up to 15 saves are stored. You can configure both the number of saves stored and the automatic save interval in BepInEx/config/Marioalexsan.AutoSaver.cfg.

You can also configure the mod to trigger autosaving whenever the map instance changes.

If you have EasySettings, then Autosaver will provide UI options for configuring some of the settings in its mod menu.

Restoring saves from backups

To fix save corruptions:

• go to ATLYSS/Marioalexsan_AutoSaver/Characters/{CHARACTER_NAME}_slot{SLOT_INDEX}, where CHARACTER_NAME is your character's name in ATLYSS, and SLOT_INDEX is the character slot (from 0 to 5)
  • alternatively, if you have disabled appending slot indexes to save names, then the save will be named ATLYSS/Marioalexsan_AutoSaver/Characters/{CHARACTER_NAME}
• grab the latest backup, or any previous backup based on the time it was created on
• copy the file to ATLYSS_Data/profileCollections and replace atl_characterProfile_{X} with that file, where X is the slot you want it to go in, from 0 to 5 (atl_characterProfile_0 is the first slot)
• example: ATLYSS/Marioalexsan_AutoSaver/Characters/Chip_slot0/_latest -> ATLYSS_Data/profileCollections/atl_characterProfile_0 (overwriting previous corrupt file if needed)

To fix item bank corruption:

• go to ATLYSS/Marioalexsan_AutoSaver/ItemBank/
• grab the latest backup, or any previous backup based on the time it was created on
• copy the files from within to ATLYSS_Data/profileCollections
• replace atl_itemBank with itemBank_0, atl_itemBank_01 with itemBank_1, atl_itemBank_02 with itemBank_2, etc.
• example:
  • ATLYSS/Marioalexsan_AutoSaver/ItemBank/_latest/itemBank_0 -> ATLYSS_Data/profileCollections/atl_itemBank (overwriting previous corrupt file if needed)
  • ATLYSS/Marioalexsan_AutoSaver/ItemBank/_latest/itemBank_1 -> ATLYSS_Data/profileCollections/atl_itemBank_01 (overwriting previous corrupt file if needed)
  • ATLYSS/Marioalexsan_AutoSaver/ItemBank/_latest/itemBank_2 -> ATLYSS_Data/profileCollections/atl_itemBank_02 (overwriting previous corrupt file if needed)

In addition to the _latest save files that are saved on any game version, the mod will also save _latest_version save files for each game version you play on, allowing you to restore to an older version if needed.

Mod Compatibility

This mod version targets ATLYSS v1.6.2b. It also has experimental support for the public test branch (version 2.0.5d).

The mod has compatibility with the following mods:

• "More Bank Tabs" v0.1.1 - if this mod is detected, AutoSaver will try to backup the three extra slots created by it.
  • Extra slots will follow the format MoreBankTabs_itemBank_{X}, where X is the extra slot.
• Nessie's EasySettings v1.1.6 (optional dependency used for configuration)

Compatibility with other game versions is not guaranteed, especially for updates with major changes.
