What is this?

Save Transfer is a mod that lets you transfer your levels, reputation, credits, storage, cargo, ships, and weapons to another save file.  This allows you to continue characters that would be broken by an update.  For example, if a Starsector+ update breaks save compatibility, you can use Save Transfer to keep your progress instead of starting anew.  Save Transfer is even mod-safe; incompatible ships/weapons will be removed from your fleet upon load.

Mission/event progress (aside from specific exceptions, like bounty progress), and other campaign-specific items will not be transferred.  Everything that was in storage submarkets will be thrown into your fleet or dumped out into a special storage area.

This is pretty life-changing.

It works like a charm.

Resupplying my weaponry has proven to be quite the adventure!

So uh, what's up with the giant middle finger?

Before Save Transfer™ every update I was in the dog house, my monument of destruction the Onslaught "Seeker of Dat Atlass" ran away from home. Now with Save Transfer™ me and my Onslaught can Conquest to Victory, Thanks Dark Revenant!

How to Use

Step 1: Load up your old save (make sure you do this before updating!)

Step 2: Open up the console (default: control-backspace) and enter "copysave"

Step 3: Paste your save data from the clipboard into Notepad or a similar program to keep it safe (control-v)

Step 4: Create or load a new save (after updating!)

Step 5: Make sure your save data is in the clipboard (copy it with control-c)

Step 6: Open up the console again and enter "loadsave"

Step 7: (Nexerelin) Enter "SyncFactionRelationships" into the console

Nice, this will be very, very useful!
I would recommend you to hide that ASCII art in a spoiler though .

[Dark.Revenant]

Made a quick update because saving fighter wings was broken.

[kazi]

So uh, whats up with the giant middle finger?

[Dark.Revenant]

I thought it was a bit boring to just have a screenshot of "Save data successfully loaded."

Nice and...er

They'll vanish, of course.  I might as well include player-owned free-transfer submarkets (namely, Storage) in the scan for the next version.

[Deathfly]

Good! I usually store things all over the sector.
it's realy nice.

[Wyvern]

Hm... Not sure how easy this would be, but it'd be quite nice if this could copy over the autofactory's blueprint list if you're using it in combination with the autofactory.

Is very useful even without that, of course.

That's not possible, unfortunately.

[Midnight Kitsune]

Will this work for SS version updates?

[Dark.Revenant]

Yes; however, I may need to upload an update to this mod to support new versions.  I'll keep an archive (along with the then-latest Console Commands version) to make this easier, when the time comes.

And no, this won't work in 0.6.2a.

[Cyan Leader]

Any chance of adding support for the Omnifactory? Maybe not its inventory but at least the stuff it is producing.
