What does the papierclip in front of a saved game in the 'Load Game' menu mean?

[Captain_Orso]

Does anybody know what the above means?

[slimey.rock]

It means that your turn has an accompanying .ord file. Which means that you have some orders saved for your turn already.

[Captain_Orso]

Thanks rock. Never would have come up with that myself.

[slimey.rock]

No problem. Glad to help

If you are playing PBEM then two red paperclips means the host has both current orders and can confidently run the turn. In hundreds of turns as a guest player I have never missed a turn. So it must be a good system.

Also in PBEM it tells you, when you go to process a turn if your opponents files are missing, which frankly is a brilliant feature.

says somthing like "are you sure you wish to process this turn, your opponents orders are missing"

[slimey.rock]

And yet, with a few drinks in me, I process the orderless turn anyways
