Was your last playthrough too easy? Or did your character feel too powerful?

Do you wish you didn't have the option to make fifteen different saves while fighting an ancient vampire to make it a fair fight?

Does your self-loathing from your save-scumming habits manifest in unhealthy ways?

Only Save After Resting (OSAR)

 makes your decisions more weighted by only allowing saving after resting. That's right - no longer can you save mid-combat or right next to a room full of enemies. You must plan your actions carefully and save at the right moments.

All normal prohibitions to resting must be taken care of in order to save.

• []Enemies must not be nearby, you must not be in mid-air, etc.

  []Any other factors, including from other mods that prohibit resting, must also be taken care of

  Your rest must not be interrupted.

  • []If you rest too long and an enemy spawns, you must fight or flee and hope not to die, so that you can try to save again

    []Any mods that interrupt will also prevent saving

    Loitering doesn't count.

    • []Taverns, homes and ships are more than just places to recover - they are safe havens for saving your progress

      You must rest for at least one hour.

      • []You can adjust the minimum hours up to 24 in the mod settings

        By default, saving creates a "RestSave" and will get overwritten every time that you rest. This encourages you to play through a character with only one save.

        • []If you want to make it easier for yourself, you can choose to allow prompting a save window in the mod settings instead so you can easily create multiple saves on a character.

          []It also possible to simply rename the "RestSave" in the load game window instead of using that "Use Rest Window" mod setting to prevent overwriting.

          Also, this mod is completely harmless and you can remove it or disable it at any time without affecting anything saved.

          Note: This mod is only compatible with other mods that do not override the default resting window behavior. Rhis does not include retextures such as D. R. E. A. M., or mods that solely add additional interruptions or conditions to resting
