Summary0007116: Exportable/importable notepad
DescriptionI'm not sure if this would be a big deal to code, but it would be great to have a notepad somewhere in the menus that you can also edit outside the game. I imagine it would just export to a .txt file on closing the game and re-import when you open. It would be nice to be able to have ones associated with individual savegames, but by no means necessary. Alt-tabbing doesn't work with AIW, at least not on my machine.

I'm mostly imagining using it for copy-and-pasting strategic advice from the fora and notes on rebalancing from the release notes. So many ships have changed recently, I'd really like to be able to go into the game with a list of ones that have had interesting buffs and ideas about how to use them. But there are also situations where I'd like to be able to take ideas out of the game with me. I might even do an after-action report if I could write it as I went along.

I typically use the world notes on a homeworld for this if I want to save arc-goals between rounds and I'm afraid I'll forget. So far it's worked pretty well.
