Auto-Save

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I hope this is also where to put suggestions, but anyway.

Would someone be able to create a script that automatically saves the map to a 
new file every specified amount of time. Each file would be saved as the 
*number*-*date*-*time*. There should also be an option to only keep a certain 
amount of saves.

If someone could add this, it would be much appreciated.

Should be under enhancements btw.

We already have 'savemap', but I suppose it's a bit out of date (it only saves 
on exit).

Yes that's what made me think of the idea. I was looking at that one and though 
an autosave would be a good idea. It would be a lot easier than joining up, 
saving, and then having to leave every time.

The updated savemap.py in the pyspades-userscripts repo has the features you 
mention, as well as the ability for admins to save a map manually.
