I realize that having the ability to save a game while playing allows to many cheats, but it is a drag when you are posed for the crushing blow or just turned the tide and you have to get off the computer, this is a big problem when you have to share your “tank” with your mate! She just does not understand the taste for electronic blood! Is there a way to save a game that is uncompleted?

No, really not. SB however is pretty robust when it comes to Alt-Tabbing, so you could minimmize it and run other applications for a long time. If she, however, closes SB, or if you have to log off, you'll have a hard time. Windows XP would allow you to change users while keeping an application open - probably THE innovation that might justify why one would want to have XP - in my opinion...

Questio-
Will SB2 let us save missions that have been played to say on our HD for later review? The method we have now is good (and thank you) but i would like it to be smoother, i mean as it happends.I understand this is a hardship on our RAM. Maybe a option for the player if he wants :question: ?

I know we want it all, but just asking.
