Summary0011948: Quitting without saving corrupts all saves for the world
DescriptionThis is fairly simple to reproduce. Turn on autosave on embark, create a new world, embark, and quit without saving. You will no longer be able to load the autosave. Additionally, if you delete the save but keep the world, you will not be able to create any new embarks.

I've reproduced this across numerous worlds, genning, embarking, quitting, deleting the save, and getting a CTD. Today I found an embark I liked, and played a bit but decided to start the site over. I quit without saving and attempting to reload the initial save caused a CTD.

World genned in 50.03. Using some mods but I don't believe that would affect it.

Mods used:
Alternate Ramp Icons 1
Audible Alerts 1.3
Better Paus Play Buttons 1.7
Squad & Burrow Icons 0.2.1
See-Through Smoothing Designations 1.1
Work Detail Icons 1.1
Interface Tweaks 1.3
Let Dwarven Women Have Beards 1.4
No skill and attribute rust 50.04
Obvious Engravings 1.0
Cave Spider Syndrome Recovery 2.1
Reduced Z Fog 1.0
Underground Farming All Seasons 1.8
Rounded Hills 1.5
Tame/train more beasts 1.0
Alternate warm/damp icons 1.01

Edit: Tried reproducing this without mods and it worked just fine, I was able to quit without saving and reload, and I was able to delete the save and embark elsewhere.

dit: Narrowed it down, it's specifically the Tame/train more beasts 1.0 mod, here:

I wonder how many of the crash-on-load bugs reported are due to this or similar mods?
