Summary0026712: Implicit save at campaign start
DescriptionBackground:

I have a personal habit of creating a "start" save immediately at game start. This gives me the option of starting over or converting the campaign into a quickstart. One of the things I enjoy doing is replaying an identical campaign multiple times to see how different decisions play out. It sort of works out as a 2nd-level map seed capturing the entire initial galaxy setup. This is something I frequently forget to do, however, and even if I remember I sometimes miss the 0-second mark in order to make a quickstart.

Related to this, with the new stable I've been enabling Ironman mode in all my games. While perhaps not in the full roguelike spirit, I wish there was a way to restart an ironman campaign or create a quickstart from an ironman campaign.

Idea:

Would it be easy/desirable to create an implicit save at campaign start? Would this be possible to do in ironman mode as well? A good name for the save might be "campaign start".

Add an Advanced setting to the Autosave category to create a 'campaign start' save. The goal is to make it easier to make quickstarts
