No, that would not help in this case. We serialize objects as follows: tile -> colony on that tile -> work locations in the colony Since the colony tiles surround the colony, some of the work tiles will not have been serialized when their corresponding colony tiles are serialized. To fix this properly, we will have to defer setting the production type until all tiles have been read. I suggest adding a suitable method to the Game class.
