Adds autosave daemon thread that saves all loaded maps once a minute
I think I finally sorted out my git problems... Anyways, here's this. I synchronize on editor like the other place that iterates over the list of loaded maps. Sorry again for the spam!
What does this do? Does it autosave all the maps every minute? If so, why? What if you are working on something and you're not done yet?
@HiddenKn you should ALWAYS save liberally even if you're not "done" yet. If the editor crashes or whatever you lose all your work.
@PJB3005 I prefer to only save after I make an actual proper change. Autosave causes saves during unfinished changes resulting in useless "backups". Unless this saves to a different file than the main save? (For example, ·vim saves backup information to .swp files)
How are these backups "useless"? If the program crashes and you have a backup 30 seconds ago you lost 30 seconds of work. If you don't have a backup you might've lost 30 minutes of work.
And if you made a mistake you may have just lost over 30 minutes of work because your known good version was just overwritten by a broken version.
Your workflow isn't the same as everyone else's. I've made my point if you disagree that's fine. I'm just saying it would be nice if it could be saved to a backup file or if there's a configuration option to disable it.
What if im placing stuff on a map after I have finished and specifically don't want it to be saved?
