Double checked, it saves on Quit just fine now (nothing is happening atm just finished a ground mission, no sighted UFO's or other events that have completed so far). Will check again when an event occurs. [edit]Just completed a research topic and Quit, saved properly again. I guess that leaves you little to go on, i'll keep an eye on it to see if I can reproduce it[/edit] [edit2]Yup I know what happened, I play in windowed mode a lot and I must have quit the game by using the windows close X instead of quitting the game 'normally'. Just tried it and it reproduces the issue 100% (I suppose you are not monitoring the window close event). To be completely thorough I'd suggest making it save on events in the geoscape as well (or at least on a combat resolvement). I managed to circumvent destruction of my dropship by alt-f4'ing which kinda defeats the point of playing on ironman . [/edit2]

Nope, the 'Save Game' option is grayed out in the Geoscape.

I'm playing Ironman mode (normal difficulty) so I cant save manually, but I noticed the game is not saving when anything happens in the geoscape. Last night I spend a few days ingame in the geoscape performing research and building stuff after my last ground mission, when a UFO shows with an escort (the first time this ever happened for me). As it was late I decided to quit, next day I start my game again and the there is no sign of the UFO, any of the research I completed or anything I had done after completing the ground mission. It saves fine during missions (at one point I tried alt-f4'ing when my LMG'er decided it was a good idea to pump the back of the guy standing in front of him full of lead), but even that got saved. However, the geoscape saves nothing. I started playing again, some ufos show up, I shoot them down, one lands and I send my dropship, it takes off before I get there and shoots down my landing shit, I alt+f4 and reload, and its right back at the moment after my last ground mission ended.. While I can understand it might have not saved when I alt-f4 (even though it does do so during ground missions), it's not even saving when I normally exit the game using Quit game (and as I cant save manually due to ironman you can see the problem), which makes me think this a bug (unless its a feature, but then its a pretty stupid one imho ).
