I always Save labeled as Patrol 1 (or what ever number it is I'm on.)

Then I hit continue and play for a brief time... 30 seconds or so....

Then I Save & Exit labeled Patrol #a

When I want to reload I load the SAVED game and the game deletes the SAVE AND EXIT one.

The reason I do this is if you just save and then hit exit the game abandons your career assuming you are dead...or if your are close to any friendly port allows you to dock there. The screws up your game in SH3 Commander (it also considers you dead/docked...though it will sort out when you resume play) if you are using that ...most players probably do.

The reason I do not just use the SAVE AND EXIT feature alone is that there are problems encountered with this feature that sometimes can and will mess up your game play. I try to never reload from a SAVE AND EXIT saved game if I can at all help it.
