i was editing my level for half an hour in vr and then it crashed. I then checked the autosave dir and found the last autosave to be from half an hour ago, which doesn’t make sense because the autosave time in the prefs is set to every 10 minutes… it’s now 8:52 and my last 3 autosave times were: 8:25 8:17 7:15 So my random guess is that when you’re editing your level in vr, the flag that is supposed to get checked that says you made level edits isn’t getting set? Thanks in advance. -seneca ---

I saw that [Unreal Engine Issues and Bug Tracker (UE-35206)](https://issues.unrealengine.com/issue/UE-35206) was closed due to inactivity. Can you reopen it? This is a pretty bad bug - it’s really easy to lose a lot of work done in VR because the editor crashed. ---

A save button on the radial menu in VR would also do the trick. ---
