Tips for a noobie please...

I saved games with TWoS near the coast, near ports, before attack, after attack, near ships, submerged, surfaced, etc, etc; and never had a problem. Only I create a new savegame each time; never I use an autosave or overwrite a previous savegame. Ever I save in my machine and in the Ubi cloud (Uplay online). My SH5 isn´t the Steam version; I have the DVD updated to 1.2.


Regards.

I even overwrite savegame's no problem at all.

Welcome to Subsim!!

Yes I agree, there was a time when you had to be careful with when and how you saved. Like the other members here, I now save when and wherever and have had absolutely no problems whatsoever.

TWoS is now a rock solid platform so you should never have save problems, except the age old one of not saving the weather conditions, which is a limitation of the game engine and cannot be modded. Just make sure you always keep the Autosave_entering_bunker at the start of every patrol so you have a recent starting point should anything go wrong and you will not lose much progress. You can also usually start the patrol again from there after TWoS updates are applied.
