I’m not op, but just spend an hour on wiki again.
For me it usually just happens randomly. Today it was because watching news which included the start of the last Ariane 5. I was mainly interested, how much “fuel” (propellant) is used and the relation between launch weight and payload weight. I quickly got distracted by rocket engines and read here and there.
Then I am currently reading a book about WW2 u boats, so I’ve read the Wikipedia regarding that specific type of U-boat, the torpedos, the torpedo calculation computer, the lives of several commanders, …
Recently my kid played with clay, so I got to read a little about the process of firing clay, basically wanting to know if I can diy it.
Normally the things I want to know more about just fly in by themselves.
Is that a mod or something that allows you to quick save etc?
I never saw a save option except the auto save when you log out at night. But for me it always overwrites the older save file and in the morning, when I log in, I continue where I left.
Having a save and load option like you describe, could be helpful, but honestly I don’t know how that would be incorporated in a massive multiplayer game.
Are you sure you didn’t just save some settings?
