Multiplayer Save?

[Nuclear Dude]

Hey all. I was just wondering how you save a game in multi?

Thanks.

In multiplayer games autosaves are made each turn. You can, however, manually save a game by first pressing ctrl+s. If you do save manually you have to manually move the save game file from the My Documents/My Games/Sid Meier's Civilization 5/Saves/Multi directory to Multi/Autosaves, and rename it to begin as "Autosave_".

Don't ask why it's so hard to do. Developer didn't think it through, at all.

& how do u load a Multiplayer game ? like if u want to resume a play with the same player the next day ?

well to start i get the other player to go online
and then .....
that's as far as i know what should i do next

Create a multiplayer game, and there should be a button saying "Load game". Of course, since it only supports multiplayer autosaves, it presents you with them. Determine which is the latest. The save game file itself includes the date and turn number, but I can't remember in which order. Turns first, year second, I think.

Oh and do keep in mind that in a multiplayer game you load you have to have all the available human player slots taken so you can begin. Even if one player is missing you can't continue a saved game. It's stupid that an AI cannot take the slots place, but such it is.
