Each occupied slot shows an image of the character being played, the world number, and the world type ( Sandbox Mode, Adventure Mode, Caves or Ruins), then the number of days survived in that world connected by a dash, unless the player is underground.Įach death will also be registered in the Morgue, whether or not it's permanent. For world customization details, please go here. When players pick an empty slot, they can first choose a character and customize the world before delving in. There are four save files available in Don't Starve (Five with the Reign of Giants DLC). Deleting a save file will not earn any of the Experience the player would've earned, which means that it's better to commit suicide if all characters are not unlocked. The player can also delete save files from the slot selection menu. Otherwise the progress made in Adventure Mode will be lost and the player will respawn with no penalty in front of Maxwell's Door. When the player dies with no resurrection items, unless they're playing in Adventure Mode, the save file will be deleted. If the player dies and has a resurrection item, the game will also automatically save before the player is revived. The player can save and quit during any part of the game, and it will also automatically save at random intervals, usually once a game day. Saving is an option available to the player and an integral mechanic of Don't Starve.
