Is there a quick save function in this game? I have found no reference to it via search function in this forum, and nothing about quick-save in paper or disc manual - and I could really use a quick-save function.

Well if you can call it a quicksave, but yes F12.
The only difference is that you are not FORCED to retype the named of your savegame everytime, which is p*sspoor design, in the first place. :p

Uh-huh...In the manual, bottom of Page 10, 3rd sentance under the "Saving and Loading" title:

"You can Quicksave by pressing the F12 key, which saves your progress under the name "Quicksave".

Meh. I think I'm going blind... or just stupid! Found it! In the on-disc manual, not the paper one.
Thanks! :)

Heh, I have to agree, it's far from "quick."

Just as an aside, the beta patch 1.03 fixes the name typing thing - if you choose to overwrite a save slot, it auto-fills the old name now.
