So,
FreeCiv client.
before starting, I sett all kinds of stuff, tech box, map topography etc.
There is a "Save" button which saves everything I did into a file.
How do I load those setting file later, when starting another game? There is no "Load" button and I haven't found the particular command in the server command lists.
How to load serversettings/gameoptions once you saved them?

Re: How to load serversettings/gameoptions once you saved them?
As long as we talk about server settings in the client side, they are used by default, no need to "Load" them separately. This also means that there can be only one set of them. If you want to have different set of settings for different games, you have to handle that on server side.
Re: How to load serversettings/gameoptions once you saved them?
Hm, I thought that would be the case, but it seems that when I "Saved" them and restarted, I had to enter all of them from the start. But could be I missed something. I'll recheck, thanks.

Re: How to load serversettings/gameoptions once you saved them?
Saving server settings client side interact badly with several other features, so you may want to do it server side anyway. In the server there are commands "/write <file>" to write a file that contains commands to set settings to values currently used, and "/read <file>" to load such a file containing server commands.

Re: How to load serversettings/gameoptions once you saved them?
If I'm not mistaken, the client-side saved server settings are only used when the server is started internally by the client, i.e. you start a single player game.
One thing to note about /read and /write though: /read will automatically add the extension .serv to the file name (if it's not there already), but /write will not. Therefore, when using /write, always remember to add it or you won't be able to find the file with /read.
I suppose I should report this as a bug. Brb.
EDIT: Reported.
