"Auto-Play Until Tomorrow"

Is there a way to set it so when you press the "auto-play until tomorrow" check mark that you get a prompt to make sure you really want to?

A few times I have clicked it when I haven't played that day's game yet by mistake.

The only way you can protect yourself from that type of mistake is to have the game do a save every single game day. Then if you make a mistake, you have to manually crash OOTP (so it doesn't do a new save), and restart the game (it will revert automatically to the last save.

I used to do that, but I don't bother about those types of mistakes any more.
