According to https://www.widelands.org/documentation/autogen_wl/#wl.Game.allow_saving i thought it might be enough to write: `wl.Game().allow_saving = false` bu it does not work. Attached a minimalistic scenario, containing only an init.lua with the line shown above at the end of it. If i start this scenario, i can save the game. What do i miss?

This function affects only the SaveHandler that handles Autosaves (`scripting/lua_root.cc:158` and `logic/save_handler.cc:136`), but for custom saves a dedicated savehandler is created in `wui/game_main_menu_save_game.cc:249` which is simply not aware of the autosave-handler's `allow_saving_` state. Open an issue please? Top Quote
