Pacific Drive developers change their mind: A year after refusing to give it mid-run saves, it's getting mid-run saves

I like Pacific Drive an awful lot—87 hours into it so far, so says Steam—but there's one thing about it that's always kind of irritated me: The lack of a mid-run save feature. I'm hardly alone in that feeling, as a quick dig through Reddit or the Steam forums will reveal, but the good news for all of us in that boat is that a proper mid-run "suspend and quit" feature is finally on the way.

Currently Pacific Drive auto-saves when you move between junctions, the locations you actually drive around in. The trouble comes when you're in the midst of exploring a junction and have to take a break for one reason or another: Your only options are to pause the game for however long you need to be away and hope the power doesn't go out and the cat doesn't step on your PC's power button, or abandon the run and give up some or all of the progress you've made and stuff you've collected.
