No "DoOver"/"Save As" Function

No "DoOver"/"Save As" Function
As this Bug Forum shows there are many bugs in OOTP. There are also flaws, such as when the AI produces an unrealistic SIX CG SHO's on one day...in 2020!!! And then there's human error, such as when I hit the "At Bat" button with Adam Ottavino up in a situation where EVERY manager on the planet would put in a PH. With a "Do Over/Save As" button, I could get around these bugs/flaws/mistakes by reverting to a previously Save version of the Game. Like I do in EVERY other PC game I have played in the last 30 years. Without a Do Over/Save As function, I cannot Load a previously Save game, one from BEFORE the error/bug/flaw/mistake. I am FORCED to live with that problem being a part of the permanent record for the rest of the season.

A Do Over/Save As Function would go a long way to overcoming the shortcomings of the Game (and the User). Having a Do Over/Save As function I could Save the game as Game 1.1, then start to play Game 2.2, encounter a problem, then Load Game 1.1 and work around the problem.
Please fix this. This 150 out of 100 problem. Every game has this feature. OOTP should too.

Good points. I would like to know how accurate OOTP21 is compared to other games out there.

But that is a do over for the entire game, not just one play in the game.

This is baseball, not golf. There are no mulligans.

I don't know why this guy keeps posting general questions in the Bug Report Forum.
