Team Secret Operations Director, Matthew «Cyborgmatt» Bailey, tweeted that Valve is working on the Save/Load Game function for Dota 2 matches.
Valve are working on a system that allows spectators to save a snapshot of the current match (teams, heroes, items, buildings, shop stocks & entities) into a JSON file. This is most likely for a save/load game function to handle crashes during pro games.
This function was available in previous versions of Dota 2 on Source. In the future, this will allow avoiding unpleasant situations during professional matches, when players were kicked out of the game and they couldn’t return and continue to play the current match.
