addedThere's also a couple other bits of UI improvements; Steam screenshots should now work again (yay!) and I added a "time remaining" section to the loading screen. This is a...partial fix. I noticed a (again, very rare) bug where the loading screen would get stuck and I'm unsure if it's just processing a lot of time or if it's legit getting stuck somewhere. With that change, if it happens again (IF...) then that'll help narrow it down.

changedMENUS/UI:

addedThe title screen now includes a menu for loading backup files. There are 5 layers of backups as well as one that's made just before starting a new moon.

fixedFixed steam screenshots being disabled.

It's also just really cool to watch how much time it's simulating.

MENUS/UI:

The title screen now includes a menu for loading backup files. There are 5 layers of backups as well as one that's made just before starting a new moon.
If a file fails to load, it now attempts to load backups more reliably.
The "catching up..." phase of loading now displays how much time is left to simulate.
Fixed steam screenshots being disabled.
