Preset Saver

Preset Saver

Stop recreating your presets with every game!  Preset Saver copies presets you build into a small global file and restores them into every save automatically, so they finally follow you around.

Tested against Schedules and Storage.

The Great Hall & Feasts update

The update changed how presets are saved and loaded. This version fixes that and runs on the updated game.  If you see any errors in the log, it may be due to old-format presets. You should delete those. Load, re-save, delete the old,  should do it.

Requirements

• []BepInEx (IL2CPP build) — install it into the game folder first. Follow the official BepInEx installation guide: docs.bepinex.dev — Installation (use the IL2CPP build for this game).[/]

  Installation

  With Vortex: click Mod Manager Download and enable the mod in Vortex. BepInEx is still required (see Requirements).

  Manual install:

  • []Install BepInEx first (see Requirements).[/]

    []Extract this archive into your Aska game folder — the one containing

    Aska.exe— so the plugin lands at

    BepInEx\plugins\PresetSaver\PresetSaver.dll.[/]

    []Launch the game.[/]

    Usage

    Fully automatic. Whenever the game saves (including autosave), any presets you've made — villager schedules and storage/quota presets — are copied into a small shared library file. Whenever a save loads, presets from that library are copied back in, so a preset made in one save shows up in all your others too.

    Your shared library is a plain, readable file at

    BepInEx\config\PresetSaver\presets.json, safe to open in a text editor or back up. It sits with the config files rather than in the plugins folder, so reinstalling or updating the mod leaves it alone.

    You might be able to edit it manually. I haven't tested that. Let me know if it works!

    Configuration

    Settings live in

    BepInEx\config\mugsy33.presetsaver.cfg(created on first run), under the

    section. Edit it with the game closed.

    • []Enabled — master on/off switch (default: true).[/]

      Known issues

      • []Old format presets can cause errors in the log about setting values to negative numbers.  Delete the old presets to clear that up.[/]

        []Ship and boat storage presets show up in a warehouse's preset list but can't actually be applied there. That's a pre-existing quirk of how ASKA itself handles storage presets.[/]

        []Equipment-colour (dye) presets are not supported yet. No reliable way to identify a dye consistently across sessions has been found, so these are left alone for now.[/]

        []A restored preset lives in memory until the game's next save. This is normally invisible because autosave takes care of it within moments of loading — but if you load and quit immediately without saving, that particular restore won't have been written to disk yet.[/]

        Multiplayer

        Multiplayer is untested.  Let me know if it works for you.
