Game save slots

Is there any way to make more saved game slots ?

I have been trying different games (don't kill that guy side with this group) and been doing it on 4 devices. I would like to have a couple more slots to save them on one device.

If it is to complicated, I will continue on as now.

Just wondering if it can be done easily?

2Oskar:
Perhaps we should increase this to 5 or 7.

Workaround:
Download a filemanager to your phone, backup the files in "sdcard/andors-trail" to folder A. Start new games, overwrite the old savegames and backup them to folder B. If you want to play a game of folder A, simply replace the files in "sdcard/andors-trail" with the files in folder A. (do a backup to folder B first.)

Committed some code now that dynamically expands the number of slots to how many savegames you have, and lets you create a new slot when saving. In theory, this makes the number of slots unlimited now. (*)

Should be ready for next release.

(*) Limited by the amount of space you have on your SD card of course.

Will they still be called savegame1, savegame2 etc.? Being able to have a descriptive name would be nice.

Yes. The filenames written and read to and from the sdcard have the same naming scheme as before. The UI for the slots also still shows the slot number.

Have a bug fix patch for it. Will send it tonight.
The savegames need to be sorted as the slot 8 showed up before 1 once here.

You do realise some people like to run seperate files on rpgs and switch back and forth rather than play all the way as one then restart as another. For example let's say I wanted to use 1 file for warrior, another file for mage, and another for rogue at present you cannot do this on your game because it asks to overwrite. You didn't even need 4 files on 1 character as 2 is enough lol. Take away the "if you create a new game" warning and let us save with different games

You can save 4 different games right now. They are adding additional slots to be able to save even more games.

When you save a game, the only time it overwrites anything is when you save to a slot already being used. That is why they are making more slots to save to.
