Multiple save files for Campaign & slightly reworked save system for Campaign

[A765-ALEX]

Describe the content or mechanics you are proposing.

We use an archive (e.g. *.zip, *.tar) or a folder for every save of the entire Campaign (every sector [every .msav file]), and allow players switching from one to another save file to play on, allow copying and deleting them, etc.

Describe how you think this content will improve the game. If you're proposing new content, mention how it may add more gameplay options or how it will fill a new niche.

I think this will improve the game because, for instance, it will allow players to attempt different strategies on a sector without having to worry too much about losing the sector by creating a copy of the save file that's being played on.

You are not. Everything you've suggested already exists/is possible.

What I meant was every sector of the Campaign (every *.msav file) when I said "the entire Campaign", not just one of them. sorry for using an obscure term edit: I updated my issue to clarify it

Literally just open the saves subdirectory of mindustry's data directory, h Is it not clear that these are sector saves? (there is just 4 on the screenshot, normally there's more)

it would be nice to be able to do this ingame rather than messing about with the files manually.

here's what I meant: edit: this is just a mockup, this doesn't have to be exactly the same but gives a general idea of what I mean
