There could be more than one Quicksave #392
Description
Cycling through 4 or whatever filenames on each Quicksave so there's backups of the last few ones would be pretty cool
While at it, I could investigate why when creating a new save in the menu it always asks if I want to overwrite that save, even though none with the name exists yet

turns out that it only asks that when clicking save twice - and I've been doing that because after the first click there is no kind of visual feedback like the list scrolling (back) to the top so the newly created savegame is visible - at least if I've scrolled down before to check if the savegame name was already taken...
In the https://github.com/DanielGibson/dhewm3/tree/savegame-impr branch I fixed it to always scroll up and also implemented more than one quicksave (number of quicksaves before it starts overwriting the oldest can be configured with the
com_numQuicksavesCVar).DanielGibson commentedon Jun 25, 2021
Here's a testbuild for Windows based on that branch: dhewm3-1.52pre-win32-more-quicksaves.zip
