Do you mean autosave in Studio? So that if (when) you crash it you won't lose all your stuff? I think it should be like Microsoft Office autosave so you can choose whether or not to use the autosaved version.

I don't think they will impliment an autosave feature, what if you accidently delete something then your computer crashes.



But it would be nice to have a save button in studio where you just push it as often as you like and it remembers what place your editing.

They really should just keep a copy of the current, open place right now somewhere. When you exit normally, it deletes the file, no problem. If you don't exit normally, it stays in its place. If you enter and there's something in this folder, it asks you if you would like to restore. It's really not that hard...

No thanks.

If you accidentally delete a script and it saves and THEN crashes, then you'll lose all your work.

If you crash, you lose all your work. Your argument is invalid.

@candy

Right now, if you crash you lose everything. Your issue with this is that it will save before crashing making you lose one thing... That's why my suggestion is the best; a copy of the game that doesn't over write anything and asks if you'd like to restore it when you restart Studio.

i think usually it works by having the manually saved version liek "MyPlace.rbx" and somewhere else a file called "autosave.rbx" so when it autosaves it saves to autosave, so if you crash you can either open autosave and save to MyPlace or lets say go to the folder and replace MyPlace with a copy of autosave.

Better idea:

Make ROBLOX Studio more stable.
