Ticket #14737 – Description
initial v1 52 52 The prefix remains useful so users can distinguish these savegames among other ScummVM saves as well as partial overlap with the existing default naming. 53 53 54 A minor drawback is half of the savegames - the ones not added first with "BluesBirthday" ID, assuming a Demo is not the initial entry under that ID - will stop working until they are renamed. I would say the drawback is minimal and the possibility of restoring game profiles by renaming can simply be documented in the game's Wiki entry.54 A minor drawback is the "Blues-Birthday-1-" progress gets reset to zero, unless the user manually swaps the savesets which would still exist. I would say the drawback is minimal and the possibility of restoring game profiles by renaming can simply be documented in the game's Wiki entry. 55 55 56 56 A seamless user experience fix might be to newly add a game configuration key by default (e.g. boolean "sharedsaves") when adding these games going forward, and to add a check for that configuration key in the code above. This way, (the other half of the) existing entries will continue to work with the current savegame naming convention and newer entries will have shared game sign-in and progress by default. However, this needlessly clutters the code.
