It's better to save and close those files nicely, assuring a solid restart point. Computers also like a reboot, vs. running all night (me thinks your electric bill would approve too) just to save 5 mins of time to resume play. |
Eh, depending on the computer: Restarting provides a surge of electricity and doing so frequently generally wears out components quicker than continued use. I typically only turn mine off if I won't be on for a day or longer. Your electricity bill will improve if you practice this however.
No idea on excessive pauses crashing SHIV. I know occasionally one shotting a small merchant will, and one time when I had sacked 3 kongo BB's my save got corrupted
