I was excited to discover the USE_HOME_DIR option when I went to implement that feature myself. I feel that it should be the default. I think modern gamers are used to having saves go in the appropriate user data locations (~/.xxx, Library/Application Support/xxx, AppData\\xxx, etc), and not having their configuration overwritten when they reinstall/update the game.\r\n\r\n<bountysource-plugin>\r\n---\r\nWant to back this issue? **[Post a bounty on it!](https://www.bountysource.com/issues/9808792-turn-on-use_home_dir-by-default?utm_campaign=plugin&utm_content=tracker%2F146201&utm_medium=issues&utm_source=github)** We accept bounties via [Bountysource](https://www.bountysource.com/?utm_campaign=plugin&utm_content=tracker%2F146201&utm_medium=issues&utm_source=github).\r\n</bountysource-plugin>"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/issues/comments/84166219","html_url":"https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/issues/11697#issuecomment-84166219","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/issues/11697","id":84166219,"user":{"login":"BevapDin","id":5095435,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/5095435?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin","html_url":"https://github.com/BevapDin","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/BevapDin/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-03-20T22:04:11Z","updated_at":"2015-03-20T22:04:11Z","body":"Run the game binary with the `--help` flag.
