Saving Suggestion: Auto-save when sleeping (I potato'd pls ignore thread)

Hi, I just got "Fatal error" crash box and lost 3 days worth of bargains and cash, which made me super sad but I was so lucky I had saved on the Sunday before the week roll over, but before that I haven't saved for 2 in-game weeks and that would have been heartbreaking as I just got my first house and was so happy I did donuts in the streets. So if an auto-save when sleeping was added that would be a godsend. Thank you for reading.

Nice suggestion, but maybe auto-save after sleeping, and before starting a new day.
Maybe this is what you meant, but not sure, and wanted to clarify.

It does autosave on sleep, you can see the pop up behind the breakdown.

It also autosaves when you exit the game

You don't even need to sleep ... game auto-saves at 8am if you're still awake then.

Ya I know, I just consider it sleeping still, for the purpose of the point. You get the same summary screen if you sleep or not.

What did you load when you started the game again? The auto save file or your regular save? They're seperate. When you click continue I believe it loads from the autosave. If you loaded from load game it wouldnt have had the saves.

Autosaves also save in the right slot, your main saves fill up the rest from the left.

I just clicked "continue" so I probably messed it up and should have clicked my load save files

it is probably my bad, if I get this error again I will go to my load files next times, I really hope it doesn't happen again...
