Re: Next Upgrade/patch
g3n3r4l3n1gm4 while I agree this would be nice, I would like to see it simply default to creating a new name. Those "1:00 in the morning mistakes" can ruin your whole night.
To save myself from myself I currently save each game to its own folder. Had to learn that the hard way.

Just curious, what does "mensch" used in this way mean?

Re: Next Upgrade/patch
That would simply reduce the religious talisman to a little bit more potent combat sensor and an ability in the game would be removed!"
Changing the way the talisman works in the standard game wouldn't have to affect mods. Just change the ability given to the talisman to the same as the combat sensor ability, and leave the "always hit" ability intact for modders to use.

there is a backup directory where se4 keeps your Last turn played, along with the current turn for each game. in \temp off of the main se4 directory.
