Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
I hosted a multiplayer game and played with different settings then ironman to better accommodate multiple humans. When I returned to my ironman game, it said that if i loaded it, it would not count towards achievements, the reason being that the game had to be set in ironman mode in order to receive achievements. I was puzzled because the save file had the ironman tag next to it. Luckily I noticed and did not ruin my ironman game. I then went back to the main menu and started a new game. What I noticed was that the convenient "remember my settings for next time" feature was in fact overwriting my old save file options. This caused the game try to load my ironman save with non-ironman settings and invalidating my achievement gain ability. This could also be and issue for people who even without ironman have levy size limits set differently for different saves, or aztecs on/off for example.
Steps to reproduce the issue.
1) Start and run an ironman mode game with achievements enabled. Run it for a few years, then save and exit.
2) Start and host a multiplayer game with settings that are incompatible with ironman mode. Run it for a few years, then save and exit.
3) Open the game, and at the main menu select 'Load Game'. Then Select the ironman save file and see if it is disqualified from earning achievements.
