Make automatic backup saves accessible from the in-game Load Game menu

Space Engineers 2 already creates dated backups in the .backups folder, but these backups cannot be loaded or restored through the game interface.

For an average player, this means the backups effectively do not exist. Most players do not know that they must search inside AppData and manually copy save files. Some Steam reviews even complain that the game has only one save and no backups, although backups are actually stored on the computer.

The Load Game interface already supports displaying and loading multiple named saves. It should also display the automatic backups beneath the main save, with their date and time, and offer a simple Load or Restore button.

This is especially important in an alpha where bugs, physics issues or mission problems can cause significant progress loss.

Edit: I have since discovered that backups can be restored through the game interface, but the option is hidden behind the small gear icon in the “Advanced Settings” menu.

This is far too obscure for such an important feature. A clearly labelled “Backups” or “Restore previous save” button should be visible directly on the Load Game screen, rather than being hidden in advanced settings behind an unexplained icon.
