Update 1.05 - Preserve Tables on Failure

Trying again should no longer drop the tables you created or reload the case. This is also true with switching between cases, with one big caveat: this only affects cases that have been loaded after this update.

Trying again should no longer drop the tables you created or reload the case.

This is also true with switching between cases, with one big caveat: this only affects cases that have been loaded after this update. This means that if you played the first case before this update and now are on the second case, your tables for the second case will be preserved but not the tables for the first case if you switch back to it. However, if you played the first case after this update, you should be able to switch to it without losing progress.

In other words, your current progress should not be affected but your progress before this update has not been saved. All cases loaded after this update should have their progress preserved.

This update is a pretty big change, so please let me know if there are any issues.
