Default Re: Game Save Loading Bug, or Just Me?

Addendum:

I checked out the Savegame folder to find out the size of the savegame files (logical, no?), and this is what I found:

After the initial named ".gam" file there was some 563 sequential .txt files like this:

savegame_osav0_osav0_osav1_plr_events.txt
savegame_osav0_osav0_osav1_plr_stats.txt

(Insert some 559 sequential lines of the same stuff here)

savegame_osav9_osav9_osav1_plr_events.txt
savegame_osav9_osav9_osav1_plr_stats.txt

I'd also had the game set to Autosave every turn (which it didn't do, by the way --- it only did 9 autosaves for some reason). The overall size of the Savegame folder was almost 12 megs with all these text files --- and that was only with 10 saves!

Obviously there must be some sort of corruption with the data storage routine with the autosave function, 'cuz I really don't see the need for almost 600 save files for each game!
