Might have some delay, game is not responding for a few seconds. Can be disturbing or annoying when drawing things and do actions with more precision, causing losing the focus when it starts happening.

Similar functions is already included in game. While a map is loaded go to Pause Menu, click on the Gear in the richt pper corner. Choose Options, Gameplay in left section. Then In-game in right section settings and scroll down a little. There you can find "Auto-save every # minutes(s) in game" and "Auto-save every # minutes(s) in editors". You can change the # value.

Can you add variables for the filename like date/time?

Ex.
CITY NAME: MySplendidCity
PREFIX: %City_Name%
SUFFIX: _%year%_%month%_%day%_%time%-autosave
OUTPUT: MySplendidCity-2022_01_29_0130-autosave

Is this mod still working?

@[AWE] SKU!MP!E- BEAST: I have no control over download syncing. That is a steam issue. The project is provided above if you would like to build it yourself.

my brother has the mods and i really want it but when i subscribe it wouldn't download

@TheNutty135. Change the settings file from 600 to 1200. This will double the delay.

Is there a way so it saves every 20 mins instead of 10, i don't like my PC freezing for a second every 10 mins.

PS ... because I got - after a Break - a lot of similar Saves.
acme.INC 22 May, 2015 @ 12:26pm 
Your Mod would be perfect, if you could implement that the Autosave-Funktion is disabled while the Game is paused ... if it's possible.

@edbusy - The repo is provided.

Enlace externo porfavor?
Saladressing  [author] 18 Mar, 2015 @ 11:59am 
I just updated and change the system a bit. I am going to test it myself in a long term, but both methods wern't giving me problems.
LEGENDARYSAKE 18 Mar, 2015 @ 10:36am 
Ah, I see... I'll try setting it to 1, thanks for the advice. 'Laggy' means that the whole game seems to lag every now and then it's about a second, then it's gone. I turned off all the other mods to see if it persisted and it did.. it does not, if your mod is turned off.
Saladressing  [author] 18 Mar, 2015 @ 10:23am 
Overwrite will only apply if you have reached your maximum file count. If you set the maximum file to 1, it will continue to overwrite the same file.

Could you be specific on "laggy". I have no control on performance when the game actually saves. That is all game side.

Initial level loaded may cause a hickup for the first few seconds, but nothing else happens on runtime except a counter that uses little to no resources.
LEGENDARYSAKE 18 Mar, 2015 @ 10:05am 
Thanks for your work and sharing! I'd support a version, where it overwrites the last autosave, to create only one save file. This mod seems a bit laggy. :(
Saladressing  [author] 18 Mar, 2015 @ 9:30am 
A file control handler was added to the system. I also added a configuration file for further customization. The system will save up to 50 files by default. Max can be set to 999.
Dennis 17 Mar, 2015 @ 12:42pm 
It creates 1000s of files will eventually break the game: you won't be able to load games anymore because you have too many save files and the game can't display them all. It also lags you a bit every 10 min when it saves.

This mod needs to be fixed. I switched to the other mod that just uses 1 file. Thumbs down.
Saladressing  [author] 16 Mar, 2015 @ 11:17am 
Yes. The save will create seperate backups every 10 minutes, allowing you to go back to a certain point within your game.
Nova900 16 Mar, 2015 @ 3:59am 
Does this mod save with more than one slot?
CaptainEagle 15 Mar, 2015 @ 8:26am 
Really cool mod! You should add it on cities skyline nation or add an external download link because i can't download it here :)
Dex 14 Mar, 2015 @ 10:05pm 
BEWARE!! I disabled this mod because autosaves kept lagging up my game, and now all my saves are gone.
Saladressing  [author] 14 Mar, 2015 @ 12:40pm 
Source included. If you feel unsafe, you can compile it yourself or check it out.
Hoerli 14 Mar, 2015 @ 12:33pm 
A Info that the Plugin is safe the map would be great but the Mod works good!
Saladressing  [author] 14 Mar, 2015 @ 9:49am 
The source is located within your Workshop files.

Achievements can be enabled/disabled via "Mod Achievement Enabler": http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=407055819

How can I see the code I am running? Where is the source?
Afevis Solmunko 13 Mar, 2015 @ 11:37pm 
Would you be able to alter this so it doesn't disable achievements? (Guide on how to do so is here: http://www.reddit.com/r/CitiesSkylinesModding/comments/2yvmlg/guide_how_to_make_your_mod_not_disable/ )
BonaFide 12 Mar, 2015 @ 7:25pm 
Thanks for the mod.
BonaFide 12 Mar, 2015 @ 7:24pm 
autosave should be a normal feature. unfortunately I just lost 2hrs of work because I forgot to save and the game crashed.
Saladressing  [author] 12 Mar, 2015 @ 4:00pm 
It should be removed once you unsubscribe from the mod. You can check and remove it if it exists within "Steam\SteamApps\workshop" folder.
Tizgart 12 Mar, 2015 @ 3:03pm 
I uninstalled this mod, but the game keeps saving... It is no longer visible in mods... But... still saving?! Help, i want to disable this :)
Saladressing  [author] 11 Mar, 2015 @ 3:02pm 
Yes. As stated within the game.

Autosaving can direct to a form of "cheating". However you may see it. Alternatively you can use "F1" to QuickSave if you are concerned about achievements.
Usage Critic Bilge 11 Mar, 2015 @ 2:58pm 
I take it the downsite to activating this is that it still disables achievements, like any other mod, right?
Saladressing  [author] 11 Mar, 2015 @ 2:49pm 
Currently, it is not possible to Connect autosaves to the steam cloud.
Galapagon 11 Mar, 2015 @ 1:43pm 
is this autosave connected to the steam cloud?
Oku 11 Mar, 2015 @ 4:17am 
nice
溥天之下小灵通 11 Mar, 2015 @ 3:31am 
Great, is the great feature!
