Invalid filename is a new one to me. Are you sure the files got extracted to the right directories?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Sounds to me like a problem with the auto-save function- probably trying to save to a directory that has since been deleted, or maybe the filename you entered uses invalid characters.

Make sure you've got a proportions/savegame and that it's not savegames. If that doesn't fix it, try to save the game manually and see what directory/ filename the savegame requester defaults to.

Back to the point about solar sails, I should also point out that they can be useful to add a single sail as the Last engine on a design with normal engines, because often they will have enough movement points to give the ship the same final speed as another regular engine (depending on how the numbers round out), but they use no supplies, and actually generate them, so they can increase the range of some designs that way.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That is correct, and nice sometimes. The problem with all of the different engine types is, you need a couple of minutes to find out the optimal engine configuration (put engines together, replace one, two, with sails, next try with a mix of efficient eng. etc.). A kind of background calculator would be nice, mmh?
