Re: Save/load game online
if you use a cloud storage service, you can make openttd save into the directories synchronized by that service, e.g. by symlinking your save directory into that area.

ok, thanks - for example if I use google disk, would it work? is there any "how to do it" file?
Re: Save/load game online
i certainly don't know all of the hundreds cloud storage services out there, but i'll just assume the answer is "yes".
usually, they create a directory somewhere in your user's home directory, and how to make a symlink should be the same on any unix-based system (such as android), with the command "ln -s" command. i'm leaving finding a method to run this command as an exercise to the reader.
basically that reduces the problem to 4 steps:

basically that reduces the problem to 4 steps:
- locate openttd's save folder
- locate the folder synchronized by the cloud storage service
- move the save folder (1) to the cloud storage folder (2)
- make a symlink between the new location and the old one
