Load/Save Changes Made from RC1 to RC2

[AgentX]

First, thank you for adding a Load function in the System Menu so you can now load saved games while in an existing game. That was a great addition to RC1 and one that was sorely needed. However, I just wanted to say in a polite, respectful way that I prefer the RC1 Load/Save configuration than what is now in place for RC2. All of these have changed for RC2:

1) You can no longer double-click to load or save anymore. Don't understand why that was dropped as it is sometimes more convenient to double-click than use a Load button. I'm not saying to get rid of the Load button, but I'm sure there are a lot of people who prefer the double-click method. I sure do.

2) You can no longer delete files by right-clicking on the file name and choosing Delete. Actually, I have no idea how to delete a save now. I guess you can do it through the My Games folder, but that's kind of pain. In fact, right-clicking doesn't do anything now that it used to do. I can't rename my save files that way either. Everything feels much more limiting now and not as user friendly.

3) Save files are now in chronological order. I kind of preferred the previous method of them being in alpha-numeric order as it was easier to find files. Now, they seem "mixed-up" to me and each time I go back, they can be in a different order because of when they were saved. Maybe there could be a select option box that you can choose between: Chronological or Alpha-Numeric.

OK, so there you go. I just had to point out some big changes in RC2 that I didn't really like. This new Load/Save system seems like a step back to me and I much preferred the RC1 configuration. I think it is now less convenient, less intuitive and not as user friendly as before. I mean things like right-clicking to rename/delete files or double-clicking to select is ingrained in our Windows using minds. To change all that seems like a mistake to me.

*UPDATE: OK, I found out how to rename files; it is only available in the Save menu, not possible in the Load menu. Not that big of a deal, but I still preferred having right-click bringing up those options in either menu. I still haven't figured out how to delete a file while in the game, though. If you are going to keep this configuration, maybe you can have a Delete File option available in the Load Menu while Rename File is in the Save menu. So, I guess that's it: bring back double-click as a selection option, add Delete File option in the Load menu, and add a selection box so we can choose between Chronological or Alpha-Numeric.

You can surrender!

The old load/save was the windows default without a game skin. All of this stuff can be done it just needs more time.
