Snapshots bound to a key overwrite snapshots of other games

Open Shideravan opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Bug Description

When you record a snapshot in game A, then you’re playing game B and record a snapshot on the same bound key, the snapshot of game B will overwrite the snapshot of game A and that unrelated snapshot of another game will be lost.

Expected Behavior

The ideal would be for each game to have its set of created snapshots. So when you register something with F5 in game A and then register with F5 in game B, you will have 2 separate snapshots, Game A F5 and Game B F5. There is no problem overwriting the snapshot when you run the same game, but in different games it can cause accidents.

I don't consider this a bug as it's working as originally intended. Snapshots are not saved per-title and are of the full system state at the time of creation (including any currently running software). You can change which snapshot the function keys point to when you switch software in the UI.

I'll leave it open as a feature request if someone wants to make it an option to switch out snapshot bindings per-title.
