"loading saves not allowed in this game"????

[strider3]

I am trying to load a save I made before a re-entry burn and I get this message:

"Loading saves not allowed in this game"

What is that about? I have never had an issue loading saves in this career.

It's a difficulty setting.  Hit Esc, Settings, then Difficulty Options, and maks sure "Allow Quickloading" is selected.

Keep in mind, though, that when you load a save, it will be turned off in that save, so turn it back on before you save again.

When did this "feature" come into being? Once the setting is changed, will I still have to turn it back on for future saves?

I hate "features"...LOL!

Couldn't tell you, it's been there as long as I've played the game.

On normal difficulty it should be turned on.  So unless you turned it on manually or selected a higher difficulty setting, something's amiss.  It will be different for all saves.

But once you change it and then save, it should stay put.  It can be nice, though, if you're playing a hard difficulty, since you still can load saves in the event of a bug.  It's just a pain to go through the menus each time.

Honestly, I don't remember ever setting this in previous careers...I never run "default"...but I'm old

I hear ya.  At least it was a setting, and not a bug or a corrupt save file!
