Starting with Version D0.10, the game ships with Northbridge Platform, a technology developed by me to provide additional features, without slowing down the gameplay. This is written in C# and .NET, and utilises Win32 APIs (along with some Ruby scripts and Command Line Arguments) to implement its features.
Backup and Restore:
Northbridge provides a backup and restore tool for your save files. When the game closes, the platform will create copies of your save files to a location of your choosing.
Diagnostics:
Since everything can go wrong before you know it, Northbridge also provides diagnostics for any missing files and if you have enough space for your saves.
Command Line Switches:
The platform has a few switches, in case you need something. You can use them like this on a command line:
<Game Folder>\NothbridgePlatform.exe <switches>
Here's a list of the switches:
-NoLauncher : Launch the game immediately. Skip the launcher.
<More will be added as new versions are added.>
