Description

Load

Load a game state by right clicking on the already active game field and select "Load".

The program (version >= 0.9.4) will reset the gamefield after loading the file to guarantee the same player/category number as it was saved.

Save

Save the active game by right clicking on the game field and select "Save".

backup_{ROUND}_{TIMESTAMP}.jgs
{ROUND} is the current round
{TIMESTAMP} is the UNIX timestamp to order and disambiguate the backups
