compressSaveGameData doesn't seems to work anymore
« on: October 10, 2013, 09:31:01 AM »
Just noticed this because Exerelin is supposed to have been changed to make use of the feature, as indicated by its config/setting.json. However it's still making regular .xml saves - In fact, not even after I edited the settings.json under starsector-core.

Please take a look.

It's possible you've got another mod that provides a settings.json which overrides this value. If it "doesn't work anymore" chances are something changed on your end.

Seems you're right. I scoured every mod I activated (just 13 for now), turn out there's 2 mods with their own settings.json which after I edited them compressed saving it working again.

Thanks for the time.

Glad that's all it was!

(PSA: if your mod doesn't change a particular setting in settings.json from the default value, it shouldn't be in your mod's settings.json.)
