save/load fails to remember "autoturn".

from Stardock Forums
It always sets autoturn to yes.

Does it remember it for starting a new civ? I can't remember if I put that in before or after the alpha went up...

No, I have always had to turn it off every time I have started the GC, whether starting a new game or
reloading an old one.

This now works well on the 2/25 build.

Thanks,

This is failing again on the 3/2 build. None of the options in this panel are saved/restored. They
are all being reset to "yes" when a saved game is loaded. Since there are new options on this
panel, perhaps ... ;)

The auto turn stuff needs to be saved in the prefs.ini file. Sounds like it's not.

My prefs.ini is not legible. Should I try deleting it?

Jack: it depends if you're looking at the one in the data folder or not (which I suspect you're not). Check to make sure that the one in the data folder is not read only while I check the code.

ACK....well, I remembered making code that saved the options, but as I couldn't find any I either dreamed it or lost it...

Cari,

I found the prefs.ini in the data folder. It is readable and not read only. I gather you know already that the
options are not in there.
