You place them in the ModConfigs folder. If you can't find it, ask your server host provider

for server-side saving, where do i place the .json file? the same directory as the .bat files, or a subdirectory of it?

which is terraria, i swear someone cursed my copy of terraria when i purchased it

i dont know why everytime i play terraria, either a thunderstorm and power outage happens, or the power just goes out for no reason, ONLY when i play the ONLY game (with looting) i own that has no autosave (ignoring kingdom come: deliverance)

This is perfect for my kitchen sink modpack, i swear its so hard to make a modpack without running into crashes every 4 mins, or lag spikes that make your fps drop to 0, making you need to alt f4 Lmao, thanks for saving my progress!

this mod makes the game save regardless of if you are afk or not

Hi, do you think you could add an option that saves the game when the player is AFK? Like, a counter ticks when you're not moving or doing anything and if it goes above a certain time it saves.

tml handles backups automatically, use them. That's why I didnt implement a backup feature myself. You can read more on this here: https://github.com/tModLoader/tModLoader/wiki/Basic-tModLoader-Usage-Guide#world-and-player-backups

Hey, I just lost all my items (magic storage) in another world (3 so far) to my power going out. I would love to see a backup feature where the mod saves past autosaves and deletes the oldest one so you have a set amount of backups that you can configure.

Please try it first before just asking if it works

Is this mod still working as of date?
Has not been updated since May 2 and TmodLoader has updated since then.

I just tested it on stable by resetting my config (in case you guys had the autosave disabled there), then set the interval to 10 seconds and enabled chat notifications, then cheated in a zenith into my inventory, waited for the notification to appear, then alt+f4 out of the game (which exits without saving), then loaded back into the game and the zenith was still in my inventory. I can't reproduce your issue. Try opening a topic in the discussions forum and send your server and client log, including a screenshot of your configs. (using text and image hosting sites)

as @UMCEKO said, it doesnt seem to work with current tmodloader, (and i have half the mods running). Not working means, it doesnt save anything. Its loaded both on server and client, but nothing happens
Vlidmir Putan  [author] 17 Sep, 2022 @ 1:07am 
this mod invokes the same code that regular saving uses (i.e. when you save&quit). Since it crashes in both occasions, consult the tmodloader discord if you need help regarding that
DeceasedCMR 17 Sep, 2022 @ 1:03am 
the reason i got this mod was that when i exitted a world the game would crash and lose progress,
Vlidmir Putan  [author] 17 Sep, 2022 @ 1:00am 
Does it happen without this mod? Can you try doing host&play and play for 5+ minutes? Vanilla should make the player save at that point
DeceasedCMR 17 Sep, 2022 @ 12:56am 
whenever the game auto saves it crashes, can you fix it please?
Vlidmir Putan  [author] 15 Aug, 2022 @ 12:42am 
in 1.3 there is a mod for that called "Save Button", ask its dev to get it ported
televon 14 Aug, 2022 @ 4:58pm 
so can u add a manual save but on text like leaving to save the word sucks
Vlidmir Putan  [author] 31 Jul, 2022 @ 8:35am 
please elaborate on "does not work"? does the mod appear in the mod enabled list (if you type modlist in the server console, or the ingame chat? The mod is nosync, meaning players won't automatically download it from the server

Oh, I see. But being able to reduce the frequency of such lagspikes is extremely useful. Thanks again!
Vlidmir Putan  [author] 18 Jul, 2022 @ 8:22am 
this mod doesn't change anything about the saving behavior, just allows you to change when it saves
Blumi 18 Jul, 2022 @ 8:17am 
This mod is a lifesaver! The game just HANGED every 10 minutes in multiplayer and being able to change that is vital. Just wanted to know why the game lags so much to save even after being moved to an SSD.
