The game state is stored in chunk 0x0FA1 (4001) - get some first information about it documented.

I am starting to suspect the int16 (or int32) values at 001C, 0020, 0024, 0028 and 002C to be the game time values. They are close together (though, why should there be 5 game time variables).
Assuming the game has a tick interval of 36 msec, then the game time can be calculated as X * 36 / 15.

Why 15 I don't know, it just seemed to be a good factor that fit. I haven't tested this with larger game times yet.

I just realized that the offsets of the remaining half of the Player structure fields were off. As a result, savegame information was off.

Incidentally, the Source Port version still was able to read and parse it. Apparently there was some extra hack that would read the smaller sized game state resources? Because it would still consider any overrides from in there with the wrong offsets.

Need a better update.
