equivalent of Process Monitor for Linux

I wanted to move my savegame for Mainframe Defenders from my windows to linux. Unfortunately I was unable to figure out where the game expects the savegame.

Is there some equivalent of Process Monitor to figure out where the game writes my savegame to?

You want strace on Linux. You can use it with grep, or it has some built in filtering methods as well.

You could always try searching the drive for current.sav which seems to be the name of the savegame file, and I doubt that filename would be different in Linux as opposed to Windows.

Elsewhere, it is said that Steam often puts save games in these various locations:

  • $HOME/.local/share
  • $HOME/.config
  • $HOME/.game
  • $HOME/.config/unity3d
  • $HOME/.loki
  • $HOME/Documents

So check those locations as well if you haven't already.

It's in $HOME/.config/unity3d/ZeroTheCat/Mainframe

Thank you!
