Weirdness with "Unlock All Prices" cheat

[Chopkinsca]

I've been playing through the RCT1 scenarios and noticed some oddness with the "Unlock All Prices" cheat. When you start a RCT1 scenario, this cheat is activated. It stays activated if you load another save game. But if you close the game, open it back up and load the park, the cheat is off. A side effect of this is that all the rides are set to "free", even when the park entrance is also free. So, even though I'm playing by only charging for rides, I have to activate the cheat every time I load my park. Of course I could just never stop playing so I won't have to bother with it. It's not a big deal, but I find it odd.

Once a cheat is activated it stays activated until you turn it off or close the game, but the status of cheats isn't saved anywhere. Every time you start OpenRCT2, all cheats are turned off. I don't think there's currently a way to set cheats to be on by default.

The thing is, when you start a vanilla RCT1 scenario, the cheat starts activated. I can't imagine it would be hard to activate the cheat when loading a RCT1 scenario, as it already detects it when starting a new RCT1 scenario.

The cheat was activated because you imported an .SC4 (rct1) file that allowed it. This is converted to an .SV6 (rct2), which can't store the required information anywhere. A new save format will allow the option to be stored.
