Hello, i have made some very long missions, and i what to make a trigger to made a checkpoint or autosave the game when certain trigger is executed, but i can't figure out how, i want something like campaign, you rescue X unit and then the game auto save and create a file, thats because if you progress a lot and then you lose you will need to start all over and that is bored, save manually can be a problem because people don't know exactly what comes, so is possible? i have used "create a saved game" action, but it send me an error
I think create saved game is restricted for campign only, because you can't load saved game on battlenet (???) -> you can't launch custom save.
I suggest using banks - this way you can save everything (singleplayer banks have no size limit, so you can just dump any alive unit in, and save trigger state), then in next game load bank and if it exists (checksum or smthing) restore units and trigger state, or start game from beginning.

Well, i understand, but i don't understand so much, what bank i should save?, also how the player can say if he want to load from X bank save or start over?
