well 1.0 release require a full restart no support for Sega games from ea, no 1.0 will not require a full restart all our saves so far have been supported so you've always been able to load your save files your factories might have broke been broken because like some recipes might change or some you know when we added pipes for instance some Factory require other inputs and outputs so that stuff might break but you say if I will still load and if you're fine with like fixing up those like that stuff, then no but maybe it's fun to restart anyways I think it's like up to you check out when 1.0 comes out and see if you feel like it or not I think it's kind of dependent on what you've done in the game up until then
