Hi Roblox Staff and everybody else. I believe you know why I'm posting this; to give a rant of what happened 2 minutes ago before now. I am very frustrated with the amount of crashes I've been getting from Roblox Studio (and I have a high-end gaming PC) and the fact that I trusted in the auto-saving function in Roblox Studio makes your software ever worse. With the 6 hours of work I've done, it's hard to say that it was my fault that I didn't save occasionally but it's Roblox Studio's priority to auto-save files to make sure I won't become upset over the 6 hours I've done working on a game; which I could've used to study for my ACT, my Calculus homework, studying for a test, and doing all the chores I need to do for the day. Instead, it all goes away in a second because Roblox isn't capable of releasing a trusted version of Studio with a functional and reliable auto-saving program. Yes, you don't need to post "It's your fault for not saving", "You're an idiot for not doing x y and z", I get it. But if this ever happened to you, you'd already know that saving manually is the only way to go; there's no need to lecture about it.

For the most part, I've learned that Roblox Studio is not reliable for auto-saving. I can manually save my game from now on and I don't need to spend an hour looking for help on the same scripting methods. Have a nice day and be sure to send Roblox Staff a message about this problem, it needs to be fixed or reconfigured ASAP if pleasurable..

Everyone goes through this if they use Studio. I always have autosave on and save manually every 15 minutes.

But really, you should worry about school before ROBLOX...

Good luck!

This is the second time I've seen you posting about the crashing, Just manually save your work. When someone loses allot of work because of a studio crash or just forgetting to save they learn save to avoid losing more work. It's not hard to save, just do it until Roblox fixes the issue

Or you can just have the game autosave for you, and if you crash right before the next autosave (meaning longest time gone without saving) I'm sure anything you've done in that time is minimal work and can be repeated.

I'm really sorry that happened. I hope they fix this and upgrade Roblox Studio.

I say, be careful when scripting on Build mode. I don't know if that's what made it crash for you, or if you were on Build Mode, but sometimes it makes Studio crash for me.

What exactly is the auto-saving problem? Did it not autosave at all, or were you unable to find the file(s)? I suggest making an easy-to-find folder on your computer and having Roblox Studio insert autosave files there. I'd also check Settings and make it autosave every several minutes, if you don't have it save that often already.

Nevertheless, there is some problem on Roblox's end because of the crashing, and I'm sorry for your loss.

From having this experience, it's a good idea to develop habits in saving.

@SoundGod, I haven't posted anything about crashing in Roblox Studio before, this is the first... You must have mistaken me for another. Like I wrote in the conclusion above, I can manually save my game from now on, meaning you don't need to rephrase what I already know. That goes along with anybody else who hasn't carefully read the post.

And for everyone else, I agree with you all respectfully. It is something most of us went through and it should be fixed no matter what, because the auto-saving function shouldn't deter most of us away like that.

Today, I opened up Roblox Studio and instead of taking me directly to the homepage, it prompted me with a recovery to an auto-save. Of course, I was lucky enough to find out that it was the 6 hours of work recovered.

Wow, haha this just made my day :D

What I do is turn on Team Build. It auto saves every like 5 minutes. That unfortunately just happened to me but I guess it wasn't as bad as six hours. I am aware this was posted a year ago but.. why not. Hope this helps.
