Summary0002535: Strange saving behaviour
DescriptionWhen loading a seasonal save (e.g. fortname-aut-1055) and then saving manually, the game saves to fortname-aut-1055, and the next seasonal save is fortname-aut-1055-win-1055. The only way then to tell which is the latest save is by checking time-stamps in Windows.

The seasonal savegames are wierd, you're suppoused to only load from the main savegame and not the seasonal ones, I think.

Yeah, the folder names can get pretty messed up, but it's not a bug per se. Currently just the tracker is just for actual bugs, and feature requests still go in the Suggestions forum. There was a recent suggestion about this, feel free to bump the thread: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=57735.0
