[open] New Auto Saving Is Not Working

I am the author of Notebook 2018 and recently got some comments about the issue of losing saved data.

Specifically, how a game crash will lose saved data, in this case user notes in the addon. I noticed that update 20 API V100025 introduced some game-system enhancements to help resolve this issue.

Sadly, my tests showed that other than doing a /reloadui, no changes were written to file. I update my addon to the latest API version and tried the following, after saving a change in my Notebook:
  • Wait about 10 minutes.

  • Enter a building.

  • Change zone (into my guild house. That means a loading screen.)

Considering the impact this has on my specific addon, me and my users would appreciate a solution. Whether I'm missing something, or the new autosave system needs fixing. Thanks.
