As the testing I posted showed it can take a LONG time for this to happen in some cases and it wasn't until Don sent me his tests that I saw it this time though and then I hit my test buildings with arty harder and saw it but in his test not nearly as much arty as I used managed to make a few go away.

I suspect a lot of players may not even notice it especially ones that might play out a turn or two per sitting because their save restores the building but in the case of the END GAME procedure, autosave takes a snapshot of that point the END GAME button is pressed so starting the autosave takes you to the exact point you were when you pressed it and the buildings are restored

The message for the End game button is "End the Game and EXIT" at the top of the screen
Then you see at the bottom of the screen "Do you really want to end the game Y/N "

I may change the first message to something like

"End the Game, autosave and EXIT"

or

"End the game and Exit (The game will be saved in the Auto-Saved game slot)

Final result ( both games )

While testing the fixed binary (which appears to consistently solve the junk terrain issues on my machine btw. ) I observed, that in single-player and hotseat games it's not the red END TURN button that creates the autosave, but the START TURN button on the Start Turn Screen, when you continue playing.

Can anyone confirm this, or am I missing something here?
