Just press F10 and the game will be saved to test.sdf (I think)

The problem is, you can not continue a saved game.
It might be possible to host a replay (with all players from the original game in the lobby) then fastforward and use .cheat and .team to get everybody in controll of their units again. But thats just a workaround.
Real saving+loading does not work yet.

I think he's talking about replays.

Just guessing though.

I think there is no way to disable the auto-saving of replays.

Use linux and set the write dir to dev/null :)

Or just set the permissions on the demos directory to something not accessible by spring. That's also possible in windows isn't it?

It is. I don't think anyone would want to explain Windows permissions to him though :P

For most other RTS I wish the replay would be autosaved :wink:
Why dont you want the replays to be saved anyway?
Its only few diskspace and you can always delete the demo-folder.

If spring can't write it it just doesn't write it afaik. No errors or anything. And the reason it can't be disabled is just that it hasn't been implemented, and maybe because it'd just be option bloat.
