Updating Patch: Do you lose current saved games?
 
If I update my game from 1.19 to 1.35 will I be able to finish my current game or do I lose any saved games?

You will be able to complete your games however there will be several little things that may change. Planets may have a different facilty queued. Ships may be retrofitted to something diffferent, etc.

I would be careful if I were you. There have been a huge number of changes between 1.19 and 1.35. You have a big chance that your game will have problems (like error Messages) and may not be able to finish it. If you really, really, really .... etc. want to finish you 1.19 game, wait with install.

If you have enough space on your hard disk make a complete copy of the space empire folder. One you leave at Version 1.19 the other you convert to 1.35. So if any problem arises you still can continue your game in the older Version. I do this regularly if a new patch is released and was more than once very happy to have this back up.
