FTL has been contacted by people who've been playing off of modified
save game files, and everybody thinks there's a bug in DM.  FTL traced it
back to a corrupted save game file.  I'm not saying that the UK save file
editor is the source of this, but you should be warned that DM just isn't
very tolerant of save game file changes.  It just worked out that way,
no nastiness on anybody's behalf.

Winning any adventure game by taking a cheat utility makes for a shallow
experience.  Doesn't compare to winning unaided by walking a solo character
through from start to finish.

If your DM disk gets corrupted, phone FTL at (619) 453-5711 and they can
arrange a replacement anyways.  Save game file recovery is an art they have
yet to master, though.
