(Ace) Renaming Auto-save File in-game

PrincessQueen · 2018-08-27T01:05:29+0900

Heya! So let's get to the point, what I'm trying to do is renaming the auto-save file in-game. Not having the player rename the file, but renaming it myself. The auto-save script I'm using is this one: https://www.rpgmakercentral.com/topic/18917-basic-autosave/ My question is, would there be a script call for that? I'm planning to rename the autosave several times depending on the occasion, so just changing the name in the script itself wouldn't really work. Would be great if someone could help me! Thank you and have a nice day!~

Change Line 63 to specify a game variable
Code:
if @file_index == 0 name = $game_variables[AUTOSAVE_FILE_NAME] else
Then put a number for the variable you want to use at the top
Code:
AUTOSAVE_FILE_NAME = 50
When you start the game, set the variable to a value. Script =-> "Autosave"
Then change the variable data whenever you want.
