Default Re: Wish List

I know I have fought and fought the "there is no game saves because its PBEM" but I had a thought.

Maybe at the menu where you hit HOST to have it actually process the turn, we could get 2 more buttons. Save backup, restore backup. All the game would need to do is save another 2h but name it something like bak. The restore just copies a bak over the 2h.

Hmmm I wonder if that would be confusing to any gamers who multiplay. Do you think it might cause "yeah I know but after I saw that I hit restore and sent a new turn for that round" arguments? Hmmmm might be better to leave it as an outside-of-the-game function.
