[Feature] Saves not saving to server about romm HOT 7 OPEN

Sorry was on the wrong account before, but this is the same person.
I only have a cursory familiarity with the web dev tools, but I'll do my best.
In the network tab I see a GET request when the save is loaded, but not when I save. But when I save a state in the emulator I see a message to the "states" endpoint.
I do see the .srm save file in IndexedDB /data/saves. This may be a red herring but I have to click "Restart" in the GBA emulator menu for it to appear there.

It seems to only save to RomM for me when pressing the menu button. Using the Quick Save keybind only saves to the browser from what I've been able to tell.

EDIT:
From what I can see with a quick peek at the code, this looks like this is an issue on the EmulatorJS side. It seems that Quick Saves/Loads don't fire the relevant events.

Currently, when a game is saved, it seems that save is stored in browser. It would be nice if the save could work similarly to save states in the way they seem to automatically upload and become available to select when loading a rom.

This is how it's supposed to behave, there's likely something wrong with your setup. How comfortable are you with the developer console?

In a somewhat related request, it would also be nice to have the option to select a save file that a rom would load automatically each time I start a given rom.

Playing on browser is not this project's main goal, and is mostly an afterthought, a way to let players casually play sometimes.

@gantoine I have the same issue of the save not saving on the server most of the time. It seems like it works correctly 1/20 times. I'm happy to try any suggestions that may help debug it.

Well that's strange, I'd expect it either doesn't work at all, or works all of the times (unless the internet interrupts). Is it still saving a copy to the IndexedDB/browser cache? And can you try seeing what (if any) requests go out on save in the network tab of the dev tools?

How do I access the dev tools? Do I need to go through the dev setup?

from romm.

I meant the browser dev tools, Web Developer Tools/Developer Tools. Are you familiar with the dev tools and browser console?
