Struct SaveState 

pub struct SaveState {
    pub version: u16,
    pub globals: BTreeMap<String, Value>,
    pub global_ids: BTreeMap<String, DefinitionId>,
    pub visits: Vec<VisitEntry>,
    pub turns: Vec<VisitEntry>,
    pub turn_index: u32,
    pub rng_seed: i32,
    pub previous_random: i32,
    pub suspended: Option<SuspendedFlow>,
}

A persistent, name-keyed snapshot of a story’s game state.

Globals are keyed by variable name; visit/turn counts by scope DefinitionId (which serializes as a stable "$tt_hash" string), with an advisory author path attached when the scope is named.

Fields

version: u16

Save-format version (see SAVE_FORMAT_VERSION).

globals: BTreeMap<String, Value>

Global variables by name. BTreeMap for deterministic serialization.

global_ids: BTreeMap<String, DefinitionId>

Each saved global’s compiled DefinitionId at save time, keyed by the same name as Self::globals (M-3 rehydration miss-path lookup, docs/modules-spec.md §5). A VAR/CONST/LIST living in a declared module hashes its identity as (module, name), so a bare name alone can’t reconstruct the id a #@was alias-table entry was compiled against — this is the “module qualifier” the miss path needs, round-tripped as the id itself rather than the module name, so no hashing scheme has to be re-derived at load time. Consulted only when a saved global’s name no longer matches any current global slot; absent entries (older saves predating this field) simply fall back to the pre-M-3 unknown-global report, same tolerant-of-patches behavior as before. #[serde(default)] so an older save missing this field entirely still deserializes.

visits: Vec<VisitEntry>

Visit counts by scope id, sorted by id for deterministic output.

turns: Vec<VisitEntry>

Turn-since counts by scope id, sorted by id.

turn_index: u32

Global turn index.

rng_seed: i32

RNG seed.

previous_random: i32

Last drawn random value (so the RNG sequence resumes correctly).

suspended: Option<SuspendedFlow>

This flow’s FlowFrame when parked mid-tunnel/mid-await (docs/flow-suspension-spec.md §2/§9, FS-1). Absent when the flow isn’t suspended — an ordinary save at a turn boundary, choice, or -> END has no execution position to capture, same as before this field existed. #[serde(default)] so an older save predating this field still deserializes; skip_serializing_if keeps an unsuspended save’s wire form byte-identical to before (no "suspended": null noise).
