Add column for save file location #124

Closed tim-sebring closed 4 months ago

tim-sebring commented 5 months ago

While it's not necessarily used in the lan party management of determining who has what game [installed], sometimes it's handy to know where a particular game as a save file located. For example, I have a problem with my Fallout 4 install (keep getting disk error) so I wanted to back up my saves before uninstalling. I had to search to find where they were located.

I'm almost positive the save location for a game is not in the GOG DB. Judging from the UI, the install location is there for GOG games, but even in that case, that's not necessarily where the save file is. You could use the comment field to include the save file location if you want. That probably won't look great in the table though, so I'd recommend just putting it in the spreadsheet (which is a lot easier to maintain anyway).

Saul Goodman, it was just a thought. I've had to search the web times over the years to find a the location for a particular game. Feel free to close the issue eh!
