Auto-centering usually is persistent over YAAC restarts. However, it is implicitly turned off (as opposed to explicitly by the user selecting it on the menu) under the following circumstances:
1. if an attention alert for an emergency, priority, or (if enabled) special status station is displayed (the flashing arrows pointing at a station or object).
2. the user tries to find a station with Locate->Station and the station's position is or becomes known (which causes a green attention alert).
3. the user looks up something with Locate->Landmark and chooses one of the found choices.
Since the second and third conditions are strictly user-invoked, the user can turn auto-centering back on when they are finished looking at the located station or landmark.
I'll look into restoring auto-centering when an attention alert times out.

Is it possible to make the auto-center option persistent?
