About this mod
Save files of new and loaded games are tagged with a unique id.
Save files from the same game are identified and are listed in a group.
The ids are stored in the mod's own list and are not embedded in the save files.

Mod effects
===========
Save files of new and loaded games are tagged with unique ids. i.e. a game id manager.
Save files from the same game are identified and are listed in a group.
The ids are stored in the mod's own list and are not embedded in the save files.
This mod is required for the Ironman mode feature of my other mod, Alternatives to death (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/551).
Requirements
============
Kuertee's UI Extensions mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/x4foundations/mods/552)
Install
=======
- Unzip to 'X4 Foundations/extensions/kuertee_ui_grouped_save_files/'.
Uninstall
=========
- Delete the mod folder.
Troubleshooting
===============
1. Allow the game to log events to a text file by adding "-debug all -logfile debug.log" to its launch parameters.
2. If an Extension Options entry exists for the mod, enable the mod-specific Debug Log.
3. Play for long enough for the mod to log its events. Or force the error that you are experiencing.
4. Send the log found in My Documents\Egosoft\X4\(your player-specific number)\debug.log to my e-mail ([email protected]) with the mod name in the subject line.

- Bug-fixes: 7.5 compatibility updates.
- Tweak: fixes to the load and save files list to accomodate Alternative To Death's ironman mode.
- Tweak: Sorting by date and name now properly sort within the group. E.g. previously, files weren't sorted by date within the group
- Tweak: Files with the same player name are always listed together when sorted by name or date. But files that have not been tagged by the mod (i.e. entries coloured white) are still separated from files that have been tagged by the mod (i.e. entries with a colour).
- Tweak: Easier to understand save file list.
- Tweak: More compact save file list because each save file only occupies one line.

- Tweak: 7.00 hf 1 compatibility.
- Bug-fix: previous version didn't work :D
v6.2.013, 25 Feb 2024:
- Tweak: Files that have not been tagged with a game id will be grouped by player name. These files are generally listed at the bottom of files that have game ids. Or when you first install this mod, these are all save files because no save files are yet tagged with a game id.
6.2.011, 2 Feb 2024: Initial release.
