'''''Adds a 'load game' option to the in-game disk menu.'''''

=Load Entry in the Disk Menu=

Adds a "load game" option to the in-game disk menu.

-=Switch=-

Configuration file: diskmenu

Command line: -Xm

-=Description=-

This switch will change the gray bar in TTD's disk menu to show a "load game" entry.  This way, you don't have to quit the current game to be able to load a new game.

It also changes the scenario editor to show a "load game" option in the disk menu as well.  In addition, this entry will change to "save game" when you hold down the Ctrl key.  This way, you can load a savegame in the editor, make some changes, and save it back as a savegame.  Note that there are some minor problems that can occur if you do this, such as towns taking over ownership of all road-railroad level crossings.  To correct this afterwards, you have to use the "<nowiki><nowiki>OwnCrossings</nowiki></nowiki>" sign cheat.

Note that it is not possible to save a scenario as a savegame unless it has been played as a savegame before.  The reason for this is that otherwise, no companies have been founded, and effectively you are not a player in the game.  Even your mouse is disabled!  So, only save a game as a savegame that you actually loaded as a savegame too!
