.h history files are only saved on a players local computer. Stars! AutoHost does not have access to them.

AutoHost does save the last 5 .m files which the game host can use at any time to restore one of the previous 5 turns from backup.

Having AutoHost archive all .m files for all past turns is impractical, as in the late game .m files can grow to be over 2meg in size or more. AutoHost's hard drive space is not infinite.

It is a very good idea if players learn to make their own backups of their turn files. Stars! allows up to 99 backup directories, all it takes is a small edit in the stars.ini file.

Read your docs and the readme file. Cool
