In the settings, I have the autosave interval set to 5 minutes (the default). However, in the config file and the game behavior, autosaves happen every 6 minutes. Guessing that somebody forgot to take into account that the new GUI is providing actual values, and is adding 1 to the value returned by the GUI for the setting, and subtracting 1 from the setting to present in the GUI. (Which explains why when I first launched 0.17, my autosave interval was reported as 59 minutes, because I'd set it to 60 minutes when playing 0.16.)

Config file and screenshot of settings and autosaves in Load Game dialog attached.

I go the same bug. 1 min interval saves every 2 minutes and 5 min interval every 6 minutes.

Thank you for the report, fixed for the next release.
