The script knows which save game is more recent as it parses the date/time of both quicksave data files and compares this to the current/date time to see which one is more recent.

But why does it need to know?

This is so it autosaves the game approx. every 6-7 minutes. For instance if you are in the main menu or remapping keys and then come back to the game - it needs to check that these quicksave data files are current, so it parses the files and then attempts to retry saving every 8 seconds. Hope that makes sense. You might want to run the script with the debug windows on and add the variables (%) to the window. Run through it using single step - it will give you a much better idea as to what is going on.
