Default Re: Save Game issue

If you simply select an "-- empty --" file slot then hit return the game uses the "TXX GE vs FR" standardised format, same goes for if you then overwrite it with any other ongoing game. The string is in the default style that fits the C format string, or blank (= "empty").

If, however you enter your own name string for a save game file ( Like "UK 1970s LC", say) then the game will use that name forever after as its no longer in the default style that fits the C format string.

That is the system that has been in place since SP1 days. Its sort of curious, but works if you know what is happening. Me, I always name files.
