[Feature] Separate Save Files for Soft Patching #2066

Open ytayj opened 3 years ago

ytayj commented 3 years ago

This was brought up on Discord some time ago, and the idea was for mGBA to create separately named save files for when a ROM is running with a soft patch applied, as opposed to saving everything to the same .sav file, which will induce problems if the associated ROM is subsequently run without the patch.

Example: Unpatched ROM=romname.sav ROM with patch=romname(patchname).sav

I was thinking that you could just save it as patchname.sav but yeah

I mean, whatever works. My example was just illustrative.
