[SUGGESTION] Allow saving during pre-battle deployment
I know the game auto-saves at each save change, but if it's possible I would appreciate the ability to save before the battle starts.

Specifically the reason I'm requesting this is that sometimes I'll reach a stopping point and want to rearrange gear before closing, but right now the only way to save any gear shuffling is to actually start the fight and then save at the start of the player turn. This means needing to commit to exactly which characters I'm planning to bring to the next fight and where I'm going to position them.

Obviously this isn't a huge concern (I can always just do the gear shuffling next time I start the game before I start the battle), but my memory is awful and it would be nice if I could go ahead and deal with things I had noticed from the previous battle (like making sure to replace a broken weapon or store loot to make room for more).

The proposed fix would be the option to save specifically at that deploy screen. I wouldn't even care if it saves the deployment arrangement, I'm mostly just looking to be able to save inventory juggling without starting the fight.

There should definitely be more opportunities to save in the game. I've been playing PC games since the days of the Wizardry series on the Apple II (no saves except in town) but I still want the ability to save when I want.

I thought I read somewhere here that you can save during a battle. I don't see any option in the menu (the one that allows you to restart) for saving/loading.

At the start of each player turn there's a Save Game button in the bottom left of the start-of-turn message for every turn except turn 1.

You can save at the beginning of player turns. You'll see a save icon on the box that pops up that says "Player's Turn", or whatever the exact text is. To load a game, though, I believe you have to return to the main menu to select a save.

Thanks for the suggestion, Falterfire! Implementing this would risk creating some significant bugs--at this point, I have limited time to add new features, so I'm hesitant to add things that will provide niche benefit while risking major bugs. I hope that makes sense!
