If you're building in a personal server, it saves automatically. However, if you're in someone else's place, there's nothing you can do unless there is a saving feature.

Then there's no way to save. Ask a friend to make a personal server for you.

Well you can... Convert all brick properties so you can later decode it all and save it as string using data persistance(on each player who is on, so when they will join, they can give their copy of game).

THOUGH it would be really expensive to convert all vital properties to string and save it, since data persistance has limited data size.

And you must make the script before starting building.

you could theoretically use SaveInstance to save the place.

there is a limit on how much data you can save, however.

Lol forgot about save instance. But yeah, you're still limited to limited data size.

the hipster way to do it is encode the instance using RbxUtility's EncodeJSON function.
