Default any way to save turn progress

I am in a game where each turn takes 1-2 hours to play. I am often unable to devote 1-2 solid hours to my turn. Is there any way to save the orders you have issued and open them up later, to complete the turn? Being able to do this would make the game much more playable for many, like me, who have unpredictable schedles.
Thanks,
Joe

No, there isn't.

This is an often requested feature.

Correction: there is no way to do this in a -simultanious- game. (i.e. PBW)

In a standard turn based game you can save at any time.

Sometimes I minimze the game or put the computer to sleep while I do something else and come back to the game later.
But sometimes that's not an option and I end the turn quickly so depending on how much time I have later I can either redo the whole turn or post the half made turn I had.
