We try to keep compatibility between revisions.
Today I've changed the savegame format but old saves are loadable too.
I've started a topic to notify you whenever the save format is change seriously, check it here (http://ufoai.ninex.info/forum/index.php?topic=3963.0).

Keeping compatibility means we need to put in extra code to handle old data. I plan to remove these code parts after a time for obvious reasons (maintaining).
