[Freeciv-Dev] (PR#10020) directory for saved games

["Jason Short" <jdorje@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This has been discussed before, but with no action taken.  Are there any 
tickets?

Currently saved games are saved in the current directory.  Game loads 
are taken from the current directory.  This is true at client and server.

IMO:

The client should have a default save/load directory of ~/.freeciv/save. 
  This is used for saving and loading games through the client GUI. 
Presumably the client passes the absolute path of the file to the server.

For client-launched servers the default saves should go into this save 
directory.  This might be accomplished using the savename setting or 
maybe by putting the directory directly into the server.

Perhaps a savedir setting would be appropriate?
