How To Properly Save Your Game (Mini Guide)

So, a few months ago, I ran into an issue:


Yep. They didn’t save. And to make it worse, I had hit the save button. And Nagi said this:

Well, guess what?
Problem solved.
The save button if you didn’t already catch on, is unreliable. So don’t use it.
The NEW way to save your game is just pressing play.
It works every time. If you just press play on your game, it automatically saves everything.
Just thought this would help people who have this problem.

Current Glitches

If you copy a sign with text on it, then edit the text, the sign doesn’t save. To fix this, delete the sign (Not the text) and place a new one behind the text.

A mini guide is just a short guide
Which the guide you made is considered a short guide [1]

Though there is no way to show its a mini guide with tags… so just put its a mini guide in the topic

Disclaimer: May not work every time depending on what you do first.

:skull:So all those times I’ve found my sentry to disappear, I just had to click play?

Wait do people actually prefer dark mode over light? I’ve been using light mode for everything, even discord-

Yes.

Pretty sure the way it works is that starting the game really forces it to save if you begin to run it. Everything is set, since it’s already been in play. This is another solid reason why you should always “beta-test” your map before logging off.

But real quick, I would suggest boldening your solution, or formatting it to draw attention in some way.

Anyways though, neat.

This doesn’t work for my map. I just put a sentry and a vending machine buying system, then it disappears and isn’t in the game. It shows in the editor, but it just doesn’t exist. I had to exit the game a bunch of times and rejoin whilst adding everything that was removed. it took around 2 re-joins. For me, starting the game only shows if it broke and disappeared or not.

how to fix that ??

not trying to necropost (flag me if I am), but I think if you select multiple objects and you copy it, it might only save one. it happened again to me with props, but that’s just a theory (barriers seem to not delete no matter what)
