I was wondering about the in-game journal (the 'n' key).
I wrote a few entries in the journal, saved it, restarted Exult and reloaded my saved game and what I wrote in the journal was still there, so I starting using it regularly. Now for some reason, a few saves later, everything I wrote is gone.
Does the journal save permanently to your saved game or is it just temporarily saved?
I really like the journal feature and I wanted to write about the quests and stuff I did in the game.
The Journal?

Re: The Journal?
Yes, it's supposed to be saved permanently, so this looks like a bug.
Re: The Journal?
It's not just in the newest snapshot, I remember a few months back it never saved either...

Re: The Journal?
I found out how to reproduce this bug. It happens when you load a game and don't open the notebook. Then when you save the game the notebook is overwritten with the blank entry. I wonder if you can load the notebook information when loading a saved game instead of when pressing n for the first time.
Re: The Journal?
Wow thank you! Hopefully this bug can finally be squashed.
So for now all I have to do is open the notebook every time I load my game?

Re: The Journal?
Yeah, just be sure to open it sometime before you save the game.
I'm sure DrCode or Marzo can fix it relatively easily.

It will be fixed on the next snapshot.
