I have made a lot of progress on my single player games. I just got a new computer and want to copy that saved game over to my new computer to keep playing it. How can i do this?
It's a bit unclear where they are stored exactly, but just copy this directory over to the new computer: Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Uber Entertainment\Planetary Annihilation On a typical install %LOCALAPPDATA% will be C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local OSX: ~/Library/Application Support/Uber Entertainment/Planetary Annihilation Linux: ~/.local/Uber Entertainment/Planetary Annihilation That will copy all of your save games, settings and even mods if you have them.
For files a programm has to write itself, the user profile is always the place to look. Because that is the only place on windows where we programmers can asume to have any write-rights in the first place. The big question is only in wich subfolder the data is. But I make it a habbit to copy the whole thing over.
