Introduction
This script will return the player to the title screen after saving his or her game. When the player loads the saved file, it is immediately deleted. This creates an effect like Breath of Fire 5: Dragon Quarter, where players have to save strategically rather than just try a dangerous area over and over again by reloading a saved game.

Originally, oo use the script, replace method Scene_Save#on_decision with the first block of code, and replace the method Scene_Load#on_decision with the second block of code.

Now, the script has been lightly touched so you can just paste it ABOVE Main or BELOW Scene_Debug to use it.
