Doomsday Engine

Currently the game remembers which slot you last loaded
from and defaults to that one the next time you want to
load a save. It also remembers the last slot you saved
to and defaults to that one the next time you want to
make a save. The last used save and load slots are
independant of each other.

I'd like an option so that it always defaults to the
last used slot regardless of whether you're loading or
saving.

For example; I start the game and load a save from
level one so that I can pick up where I left off. I
finish it, level two loads and I save the game in a new
slot. I screw up and want to start over, so I go to the
load screen, hit Enter and I'm back on level one,
because the load menu defaulted to the last slot I
loaded from and I forgot to change it.

Example 2; I save my game on level two and then I
decide to go back and check something on level one. I
want to save the game before trying something, so out
of habit, I call up the save menu and hit Enter twice.
I've just overwritten the level two save, because the
save menu defaulted to the last slot I saved to.

If the save and load menus both defaulted to the last
used slot, neither of the above would happen.
