Enum SaveManagementStrategy

Different management strategies used to manage save histories.

Namespace: Snowflake.Orchestration.Saving
Assembly: Snowflake.Framework.Primitives.dll
Syntax
public enum SaveManagementStrategy

Fields

Name Description
Copy

A full copy of the save contents are kept on the creation of each new save. Best for small save files that don't take up a lot of space.

Diff

A diff is created from the initial save of the ISaveProfile. If no initial save exists, then the behaviour for the initial save only is the same as Copy.

Best for fixed-size, larger save files that are still reasonable in size to calculate a diff based on the initial save for. Calculating the diff will incur a CPU time cost.

None

No strategy is used to manage saves. In other words, no saves are persisted.

Replace

Only one copy of the initial save is kept, which is replaced by new saves. Best for extremely large and irregular (random) save files, but loses the ability to restore a previous save.
