Compatibility of save files

Post by Matti »

Does save files, created with older version of Oolite, work in newer version? How about loading old save file after installing new OXPs?

Oh, yes. In fact, Oolite 1.75 can open saved games written by the very first test release of Oolite from 2004, and vice versa. (I just tested.) Installing new OXPs shouldn’t be a problem, but removing old ones can be – in particular, if the OXP defining the ship you’re in is missing, the game won’t load, and unknown equipment will be removed.
