I'm being honest, each single time you make a place, in the middle of it you forget to save it and an error goes to your computer and it crashes.

Can't there be an Auto Save so it saves automatically each time you place down a brick?

Please, I really don't want any; "Next time remember to save it" Posts...

How about every 20 bricks?

Autosaving each brick would cause alot of lag, and it would also increase the buisiness of the ROBLOX servers.

No, because if a major error happens and you can't undo, you will end up stuck with it. Then you have to manually fix it which could take hours.

You could reset the version, but you don't know which version you're ressetting to, and every save, you end up adding a new version to the list.

How about it just saves every 5 minutes or so?

Doing it by brick would be useless. What if someone is scripting a GUI game? Also, auto saving every 5 minutes would create a lot of version numbers that might be very similar. I know I've worked for hours on ends on a place before, and I've sometimes spent 15-20 minutes only changing one thing, trying to get it to work.

Should be optional.

Good thought, but this would make reverting back to previous saves difficult, if say you wanted to re-open an earlier version of the game.

But what if there was an in-game save button? As far as I know the only way to save is when you exit the building Window.

Excuse me, sir. I see you don't use Studio. I think you should try it out.

Also I do testing in my place. I do a test that can mess up my whole place. -auto save- Your place is ruined and you can't do anything.

Can it only update the game when you ask it to though? I'd hate to be blowing it up for fun in build and it all being destroyed permanantly.

Actually he's right, we shouldn't save by bricks, but by minutes, every 5 minutes sounds good.

No support unless it's optional. I've screwed up my places before and had to not save to fix them. I don't want it auto-saving a screwed up place.

After a certain extent of time it should auto-save.

Every 5-10 bricks would lag the building process. After 5-10 bricks it will have to pause to auto-save will just be annoying.
