Remember that if almost all changes to loading require you to increase
the version in Version.h and add wrappers arround loading code using
versionMinor.

Otherwise, your code will try to load a variable that hasn't been
saved to the file in the first place, which will eventually lead to an
error.

Saving doesn't require using versionMinor, simply because you always
save in the latest format. There is no way, and no desire to have a
way, to save from a newer version to an older savegame version.
