This page is transcluded on Map format.
Problems with the existing savegame format:
- they are big - they are many - they are disconnected from rulesets, giving errors or undesirable behaviour in saves when the ruleset changes - loading of savegames is not streaming but requires vast sums of memory (up to 100 megabytes) - load of big games can be quite slow
New features we want:
- replay
So how would a future, better savegame format look like?
