Is there an autosave in MP games?

Forum dedicated to the Scourge of War Game set during the Napoleonic Wars. Scourge of War: Waterloo follows in the footsteps of its American Civil War predecessors and takes the action to one of the most famous battles in history. It is by far the most detailed game about the final battle of the War of the Seventh Coalition.

Is there an autosave in MP games?

How about at least a save option in MP games? Is it the same as SP game routine?

Thanks

Directly is not possible; you have to use from command line the command dumpscen in order to save the scenario.csv of battle and put the ohter files from the netserv directory \SowWL\Scenarios\NetServ in \SowWL\Scenarios\ScenSave; fron the hosting room you can select this as scenario at place of sandbox. Of course you lost the points info and you have to modify the start time in scenario.ini in order to adapt to the new start time.
