Have you thought of fixing the autosave to actually be useful, rather than just screwing you over?
Like being able to set it to save every few days, rather than immediately after every single event? I suspect that would make it WAY more useful than it currently is, and would make the game way more enjoyable, as you can actually go back and fix things, like if you change carriages but forget to replace the cargo, etc. That would be the single biggest improvement this game needs at this time, in my opinion, and would not be too hard a fix, merely another line in the options menu, and a few lines of code that would change the saving behaviour and make the game much more worth it.

Would love to hear from the devs on this, and whether they're still working on refining the game, since it seems a lot of the reviews indicate that they have abandoned development of this otherwise mostly excellent game!
