The saves are structured in the JSON format, which is basically a tree with (for example) a branch for 'actors' and a subbranch for each character in the game.The game is hot but the saving takes forever... It was fast when i deleted the save folder with all the saves the game came with, but only for the first ten saves and is now back to being super slow.
Is there any fix?
When you open the bonds menu, a large number of junk characters are added within the 'actors' tree, multiplying the size of the file by 10. That is why it takes so long to save.
The best solution for a new save is to avoid clicking 'bonds'. If you've already done that, though, it *is* possible to fix the save. Essentially you need to open it up and delete the junk characters. They may be sprinkled in with the wanted ones, so this may be easier said than done.
A method for editing your save and removing the junk characters is shown here:
I suspect it would take 15-20 minutes for someone computer savvy but who has not used the JSON editor before and is needing to check each step carefully.
