Summary
I started noticing this issue in late April.
Basically, when I launch creative alone or with friends, somewhere in the timeframe between 20 minutes to a hour and a half will initiate an auto-save for the islands.
This usually isn’t a problem, but now, the islands become trapped in this saving cycle. This means that all progress made, if it wasn’t saved will be lost when I return to lobby, and enter back into creative.
I’ve lost countless hours of work and world-building to this issue.

Steps to Reproduce
-
Launch a creative match with one or multiple other players.
-
Begin working on separate projects or on one project in one island altogether. Allow some time to pass. (Roughly 30 minutes to an hour)
-
Return to creative hub and check if the island mentions a “saving” state. If true, the glitch has been initiated.
-
Return to lobby. Then relaunch creative again.
-
Check the island to see if progress during building has been lost.
Expected Result
The expected result is that auto-saving shouldn’t be infinitely stuck in a cycle, causing players to lose island progress.
Observed Result
The actual result is that auto-saving has no end cycle and becomes stuck. Therefore, any progress made before the auto-saving initiates will be lost when the player returns to lobby and relaunches creative.

Additional Notes
I have more evidence of this glitch if needed. I’d be glad to share this information with any team members.
