Not a bug imo because it asks for a changed functionality, not to fix something non working.

I have no idea why it is the way it is, but osu! doesn't save settings as soon as you adjust them. Instead, it saves them when it closes or something else triggers the save. I had osu! crash countless of times and my sensitivity, keybindings, etc are never saved and as a result need to readjust them. This also happens to collections. osu! crashed on me once after sorting through a couple hundred of beatmaps into collections, and that was all gone.

My request is to save settings upon options and collection menu close at least, but preferably upon each individual change.

It doesn't do that already? That makes no sense to me actually.
Strange that this isn't the case

Try making a collection or change a setting and end osu! through task manager. The setting should be lost

I think it doesn't save because you're force killing it rather than actually quitting the game.
Rather if you exit normally through the game it will save.

Then this won't happen. It's useless. Just exit the game normally.
it's already been proven you crash more if you force kill osu! all the time, so you're bound to have problems anyways

Do you even get the point of this request? I'm on Beta which tends to crash often due to memory leaks and other stuff, and just having a setting save system the way it is now is really not good. What makes you think I force kill osu! on purpose? It's just for demonstrative purposes since it behaves like a crash.

Why can't this happen? Most games save when you change setting immediately. I play on a toaster, which freezes a lot, so this'll be really helpful.

I get that, but about the force kill thing; it's bound to happen if you're force killing it-- it'll cause more problems that way, is what I'm trying to say.
I like the general idea of a system where it saves periodically, I'm just not sure about the whole force kill thing.
Here, anyways. You should try to search next time, I found this really easily. t/138560 and this, lol: t/235323

Hmmmm... not sure. It doesnt have any stars and it requests for a periodic save not an instant one. Further more, I think this was implemented, though dunno. The settings save after something is triggered without closing the game, which makes sense considering this request. I'll wait for a mod to decide I guess.

I tend to quit osu! by ALT+F4 so this should be useful in some case.
