- Asynchronous saving: Saving is now processed in the background and no longer causes the game to freeze. NOTE: If autosaves are set to daily/weekly and simulating multiple days/weeks at a time, autosaves will likely skip some days. This happens by design, so that the game isn't interrupted because of saving.
