Loads the quick save for the kind of game being played: QUICKSAVE.SAV in a campaign or QUICKSAVE_SKIRMISH.SAV in a skirmish. If that file is missing or was written by another version, the message list shows No quick save to load. and nothing else happens.

Otherwise the load runs at the end of the frame, and play resumes in the restored game. If the restore fails partway, the game shows Error loading game! and leaves the player in the options menu, as a failed load from the load dialog does.

The command does nothing in any of these cases:

  • the game is not a campaign or a skirmish;
  • a scripted sequence has locked input;
  • the game is already being won or lost;
  • a recording is playing back.
