Critical - UEFN Live Edit - When autosaving, UEFN freezes for a minute

General Issues and Bug Reporting

When building in live edit and UEFN autosaves a message “saving” appears on UEFN. During that time, if you alt tab from live edit FN to UEFN, you have no control over the editor (frozen) and it lasts around a minute (every time the autosave happens). Very time consuming to work around. At times, it also stops flight in live edit, cancels the prop I am holding, then live edit shows a momentary “editor not connected”, before showing “up to date” again, without the game saving though.

Edit: This is even worse than I thought. Working in UEFN with live edit open causes an editor freeze of between 10-22 secs everytime ANYTHING is saved/moved.

Bumping this again because I dont think its the saving that causes the freezes. The editor randomly freezes when I have live edit open and I create new custom content in UEFN as well alt+tab from creative to go to UEFN. It happens VERY very often and it breaks work because the freeze lasts for a good amount of seconds, in which time I can’t do anything.

Confirming that doing anything in live edit fully freezes my editor for me!
