Suggestion for Loading Saved Games

Hello! I have a little suggestion pertaining to the loading process of save games. So, I like to make my own scenarios using the create empire tool and usually end up with really complex worlds which I save to my computer. However, whenever I load these saves it is usually in full speed so the borders can sometimes change before I have a chance to pause it. Could you make it so that whenever you load a save game the speed is defaulted to paused? That is just a minor gripe I've had with an otherwise amazing game. If you can get back to me soon I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! :)

Also, there seems to be a bug with loading save files of different sizes than the base. Sometimes, if I save a scenario of 4000 stars when I load it the actual empires will be glitches into a small section of the screen while the actual map size is exaggerated behind it. This happens on both Mac and iPhone and would really appreciate it being fixed :)

Interesting idea about loading it paused, though I think if this was enabled by default it would confuse users :) I'll think about making a setting for it.

As for the bug: I think i is fixed for the next version :) A workaround meanwhile is to create a new galaxy with the same amount of stars as your saved file, then load the save file.

Sounds great! Thank you for the response!
