Persistence & State¶

Things that have to still be true after a reload -- and, in one case, after a crash halfway through writing one.

• Buffs that run down while the game is closed — Offline time that expires effects rather than running them, on a save participant that has to go last
  Status Effects, Save · Subtle
• A save that survives a crash mid-write — Keep the previous save, so an interrupted write does not take the run with it — the fourth time the thing to vary turned out to already be a parameter
  Save · Subtle

Filed elsewhere, but they answer this too¶

These live under another heading — the sidebar puts each recipe in one place so you can find it again — and they are here because they genuinely answer this question as well.

• A chest that stays looted — Open it once and it is empty forever, including across a reload
  Loot, Save · Subtle · filed under Loot & Rewards
• A shop that remembers — Stock that goes down when players buy things, and is still as they left it after a reload
  Economy, Save · Subtle · filed under Shops & Economy
• While you were away — What finished, what could not be delivered, and what is still on the bench when a save loads
  Crafting · Focused · filed under Crafting & Progression
