Changelog

1.0.0

Initial release.

  • Automatic rolling backups of server save files, taken on every save including the five minute autosave, and when a save is selected to load.
  • Backups tab built into the Load Game screen, using the game's own button styling.
  • Each row shows when the backup was taken plus the money, island and playtime read from the file itself.
  • Restore and Delete per backup, plus Back up now and Open folder.
  • Restoring takes a backup of the current file first, so a restore can itself be undone.
  • Manual backups are never pruned. Only automatic ones rotate.
  • Identical saves are skipped so the history holds genuinely different states.
  • Empty save files are refused for both backup and restore.
  • The save list and the save info panel refresh in place after a restore, so the restored values show immediately.
