Saves and settings

Saves

Version	Where saves live
Desktop	Documents/Banished/Save/ — the same folder as the original game
Browser	the browser's storage (IndexedDB) for the page

On the desktop, Un-Banished uses the same save format and the same folder as Banished. So towns that you saved in the original game appear in the Load dialog. Autosaves work as in the original (Options → Game). On Windows, the folder is %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Banished\Save. If you moved your Documents folder to another place, Un-Banished does not follow it.

To keep your saves in another place, set BANISHED_USER_DIR to a folder. Un-Banished then uses the Save folder inside it.

Settings

The Options dialog saves its values (video, audio, game options and key bindings) in a settings file:

System	File
Windows	%APPDATA%\banished-wasm\settings.txt
macOS	~/Library/Application Support/banished-wasm/settings.txt
Linux	$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/banished-wasm/settings.txt (usually ~/.config/…)
Browser	the browser's local storage for the page

To return to the default settings, delete this file. To use a different settings file, set BANISHED_SETTINGS to its path.
