Is there a mod for one-life-only mode?

[freeafrica]

I'm looking for a mod which does something similar like:
* disables game save/load and only allows continue
* displays a "You've lost" message if you die and deletes that game (so you can't continue)

I'm also open for ideas, if this is possible to do w/ a mod, maybe I get my hands dirty to build one like that.

1. Go to game settings, change the autosave to never. Don't save the game manually.

I recently broached this in a recent modding discussion. My intentions were different, but I also included DID (Dead is Dead) style gameplay as a use example. As already mentioned, we can only disable autosaves, and refrain from manually saving. It does not appear to be possible to make a mod that achieves this.

You're welcome, and likewise, thank you for confirming my assessment that this type of gameplay is desired.

Whilst it is not my preferred style of gameplay, I am cognizant and respectful that, like yourself, players do seek the added challenge of completing certain goals all within the same play session on a game without a save to fall back on.

I remain hopeful that a method of suppressing saves for a game session via the API in the same manner as disabling autosaves will come to light eventually.
