AUTO SAVING Unreal Ed

While in UnrealED, goto the "View"-menu and select "Advanced Options".
You should get a new window containing several sections.
Open the "Editor"-section and in there open the "Advanced"-subsection.
Now set the "AutoSave"-properties to true and adjust the "AutoSaveTimeMinutes"
to whatever you think is best.
Now UnrealED should autosave your current map every x minutes.
I know a lot of people have lost a lot of work because of an editor-crash
and they didn't save their map.

Again...
One thing you should always do before Saving a map is to Rebuild it! (Do a Build)

Saving without the Build can cause problems.
Just ask Shadow342 and other mappers! :wink:

Sooo...
If you do the "Auto Save" thing, will it give problems then??? :shock:

I think it will!

Unless it does a FULL Build when it Auto Saves!?!?
But, even then, it may do it right when you are in the middle of something - Problems???

OK - It must do a Full Build when it does it!?!?

I think that that would be a good idea!
It just doesn't sound right Saving a map without doing a build.

Good point JackO - My thoughts exactly.
Better to be safe!

It probably saves up to the last build - I wouldn't trust it doing any better than that.
