Autosave

Please consider the inclusion of a (customizeable) autosave feature.

Yesterday, for reasons unknown to me, the my client (The Judge) exitied mid-battle on 4 different occasions. When I reloaded (each time) I found the maps to be unexplored and myriads of living mobs that should have been dead; and players at full health with all of their powers. While I corrected this by pressing F2 every few seconds, it was annoying.

Checkbox option I would like to see:

Time Based (where the Judge could enter a number of seconds).
Initiative based (Each time initiative changes - which is what I ended up doing).
Broadcast based
# of actions based (Where a number of actions could be entered)

 

Yes, I typically have large maps and lots of creatures. Normally, this isn't an issue.

The crash occured when I had multiple (albeit smaller) maps open (convenient because the players were in a location that had them changes maps regularly).

Ultimately closing all, but one, map - eliminated the problem - leading me to believe that memory is indeed the culprit.

For the record, I start d20pro with the bat file; which I have modified to provide 1536 of memory (The smallest amount that would allow my 6000 combatant map load).

The system has 4G of ram; and is running Windows 7 (64).

For the record, my Epic battle loaded an played out fine; but the smaller battles leading to it (multiple maps) caused the client crash issue.

Unfortunately, like a dumba$$, I deleted the crash files without thinking (which are no longer in my recycle bin either)

Thank You, for the save on initiative option - As all of my crashes happened during combat, this is likely all that is needed.
