Trouble saving game

After I play the game, and try to come back and continue, it doesn't save for some reason. Maybe auto save isn't a good idea. :x

I tried that, but it didn't work. Maybe Adobe Flash Player is outdated on my computer.

If you're using the online version, save data is stored in cookies, so anything that deletes or doesn't save cookies will cause save data to be lost. But if it's the downloadable version, I don't know what to tell you.

It's the online version. How does the cookies thing work?

General explanation: Most, if not all, websites store small files called cookies on your computer when you visit. Exactly what these cookies do varies from site to site, but in most cases they're used to identify your computer when you revisit the same site. Runouw uses cookies to store your Last Legacy save data, so that when you return to Runouw the site can use the save data from your computer.
However, cookies may often be deleted, for various reasons. Certain programs, including some antivirus programs, consider cookies to be harmful or useless, and thus will delete them to protect your computer or free up space (there's usually an option to disable this in these programs). Also, many browsers have a "private browsing" option, such as Google Chrome's "incognito mode", which prevents cookies being saved on your computer during browsing and may also delete cookies that already exist. To prevent this, avoid using Runouw in a private browsing mode.

Really, since cookies are so difficult to maintain and keep safe, the best option is to use the downloadable version instead.
