Please note: autosaving is disabled by default because save times can become extremely long with many mods enabled. Instead, the mod simply warns you when you haven't saved in a while. If you want to enable autosaving, edit
autosave_settings.json.data in the saves/common folder and set
"enableAutosaves" to
true (this file will only exist after you have launched the game with Autosave enabled at least once).
You can set forced autosaves to happen after enough time has passed since the last save, after market transactions, after fighting a battle, or any combination of the three.
The autosave portion of this mod works by simulating keypresses. If for some reason F5 isn't the button you use to quicksave, you'll have to edit the settings file to point it at the right key. Please note that the key IDs in this file are
not the LWJGL constants used by every other mod, but the
Java KeyEvent constants instead.
