Portable save data #28

Open Lojemiru opened 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. AM2R stores saves in AppData, so trying to use it as a portable executable on a removable drive will not carry save data with it.

Describe the solution you'd like A config option for a portable save location.

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A

Depending on how this would get implemented, I don't think it'd work with Linux AppImages. I may be wrong on this though, so it would be a good idea to test this on there.

Miepee commented 3 years ago

A potential solution could be, to distribute extracted AppImages. This is very hacky however, and I'd rather avoid it.

For Linux AppImages, we may just give them the choice at the time they're patching. Something akin to Do you want to have AM2R in portable mode?, which only then extracts the Appimage. Otherwise it won't.
