Title AutoBackup
Description Never lose a brilliant mechanic to a sudden crash or a bad refactor again.

AutoBackup is a lightweight, non-intrusive safety net for your Godot 4.x projects.

Unlike basic backup scripts that only copy files as they sit on your hard drive, AutoBackup uses native editor hooks to force a true "Save All"—capturing all open scenes and safely flushing the script editor's internal cache before doing anything else. Best of all, it does this entirely in the background without throwing annoying "Reload from Disk" popups or stealing your window focus.

Key Features:

True Background Saving: Safely writes all your uncommitted code and scene changes to disk automatically. No more backing up unsaved changes!

Optional Auto-Zipping: Want external backups? Enable zipping in your Project Settings to automatically generate neatly organized, incrementing archives (e.g., ProjectName_001.zip, ProjectName_002.zip).

Zero Interruptions: Completely silent operation with a sleek, non-blocking toast notification in the bottom corner of your editor.

Toolbar Integration: A clean set of controls right in the main editor toolbar. Pause or resume the timer, force a manual save/backup, open your backup directory, or reset your session counter with a single click.

Set your backup interval, choose your destination folder, and let AutoBackup handle the rest so you can focus on building your game.

Note: To configure your backup interval, destination folder, and toggle the zipping feature, ensure you have Advanced Settings turned on in your Godot Project Settings menu, then navigate to General -> Addons -> Auto Backup.
