Customization

Change the value in line 21 if you feel like it :3


Compatibility

Will clash with any script that rewrite "command_new_game" method in Scene_Title(if there is any script like that )
Should be compatible wih Neo Save System by woratana(not very sure,since I didn't take at look at the code)

Nice script thanks!

What should I do if we enter a new chapter in the game with force save?

What should I do if we enter a new chapter in the game with force save?

This script is clearly for new games... so this question isn't really relevant. There is an event command called Show Save Screen, that should be good enough.

[Akroona_Shadow_o...]

In my game there is a little bit of gambling, and I was wondering how I could modify this script to force save so that people couldn't 'cheat' the system by pressing F12 if they lose a money on a 'game'.
