Default Re: How to start SP game efficiently?

I think that what Alexti is hinting at is that it would be useful if Dom remembered all the settings used in creating a game, perhaps saved off to a config file, so that if you wish to start a new game with the same, or even another nation, all those settings would already be made. That would allow the player to make a quick review, tweak anything they'd like to change, and then begin the new game. Several dozen clicks would then be reduced to a handful.

IMO, command-line options (which aren't newbie-friendly, no matter how well documented) are a crude way of doing something that should be available built-in to the UI.
