I can't save on multiplayer. - Suhduhh - 06-17-2023

When I try to play multiplayer, the game creates a new .sa2 file instead of using the existing .sav file. When I switch to singleplayer, it uses the .sav file as expected. I am playing Pokemon Fire Red if that helps. If this is a feature, how do I turn it off?

The point of the .sa2 files is to avoid corruption from having multiple windows have the same save file open at the same time. You can select the .sa2 file manually by going to File > Save games > Player 2. There will be a fix in 0.11 to prevent .sa2 files from being made if the games in question are different.
