Resume Game needs refit or something
 

I'm using 1.84 since the latest patch screwed up the graphics on my laptop (won't display planet or sector maps). All the requisite .bmps seem to be there. Someone said replace these with the originals and all will be well. But ... Maybe I'll have to re-install the whole magilla - but I digress.

Twice now I quit the game to Resume later and the game did not pick up where I left off. Rather it started at the beginning.

Anyone else experience this?

Is this a simultaneous movement game? You have to be playing 1.91 to be able to save in the middle of the turn for such games.

I'm playing against the computer if that's what you mean. It seems to have saved my current status before this.

Speaking of 1.91 - how best to prevent what happened on my laptop setup? Save all .txt, .emp, .bmp files and reload/copy them back?

No, I mean simultaneous movement mode, rather than turn based. It is not the default mode of handling turn execution (though it is the far superior in terms of balance, especially against the AI).

Are you using a mod that uses the image mod? Such as FQM Deluxe?

Modless - i.e. straight SEIV

You have to save, not just quit...

Then you can load the save, finish, hit end turn and then upload the PLR.
