includeInUndoOVERRIDDEN
Saving has no effect on game state, so it’s irrelevant whether or not it’s undoable; but it might be confusing to say we undid a “save” command, because the player might think we deleted the saved file. To avoid such confusion, do not include “save” commands in the undo log.
isRepeatableOVERRIDDEN
Don’t allow this to be repeated with AGAIN. There’s no point in repeating a SAVE immediately, as nothing will have changed in the game state to warrant saving again.
