- Store the autosave files within a separate subfolder with the scenario name and clear the content of a existing subfolder on start.
- Create screenshot on the same time with the autosave and give this the same filename (except the extension)
- Log the given on the same time with the autosave within a text file and give this the same filename (except the extension).

I am not sure what you are asking. Saves are already in a separate subfolder. Are you want each scenario played to have its own generated subfolder? Clearing automatically any saves at start could trash a save if you are running a given scenario more than once for testing or from the other side. For the picture, are you talking a full size screen shot or a thumbnail for looking at in some new open save dialog? What file are you logging at the same time? I'm confused at where this is going. Can you give us some more details? We are already planning to add filters for loading various game types in Southern Storm.

This is the result of several games.

If this was stored in Modules\FPRS\Saved\FPG_A1_Meeting of Titans_NM\FPG_A1_Meeting of Titans_NMxxxx.sav
and a screen shot: FPG_A1_Meeting of Titans_NMxxxx.jpg
and the orders given: FPG_A1_Meeting of Titans_NMxxxx.txt

Unit xxxx goto location xxx and Hold
Unit xxxx goto location xxx and Screen
....

This way there is a way of evaluate of the order given and the result at the end of a order circle.
