[2021] Crash when loading save game from previous version after Corvus patch

1.2.x saves are not save game compatible with 1.3 and will indeed crash the game, I have several reports of this now.

You must revert to 1.2.2 in the Steam betas tab for the game to continue them.

Sorry about that!

I am certain it is permanent. There were map changes between the versions, it's almost impossible to work around that.

One thing though, I couldn't even see a 1.2.2 save have under 1.3 unless I ticked the "see incompatible versions" box in the game. Is that what everyone is doing to experience this problem, or is that not happening for all players somehow?
