  1.03 Small patch for save files and 'new game' bug

  WHAT'S NEW?Worked on better save file handling to prevent a bug where the 'new game' button stopped working. The game will now load from a backup saved file if the saved file has been corrupted, which can happen in power outages. Fixed Ship Tab and Cryo Tab achievements being awarded too early.Optimised saving for better performance. Fixed a bug where the captive sun would show through onto the victory panel. NOTE: to those who are affected by a corrupted save file/ new game bug, you may need to delete your save file if it's still not working. You can find it in your windows user folder then:/AppData/LocalLow/Adam Travers/Feed the Reactor/feedthereactor.txtThanks for your patience with this issue! Please let me know if its still not working for you. Thank you for Feeding the Reactor!!!!-Adam
