The auto saving is great, but if there was a save button that didn't really do anything but put you into viewing the page instead of editing, I'd feel better. Not having a "save" button makes me a little nervous
Also I don't think I've said it yet, but thanks! The update is great 💖

There is! the "View your character" button is basically that save feature, it even pops up and says "Saving…" when I click on it.

Just a bit of advice. When you press the view button and the ‘saving…’ thing comes up, I’ve found it doesn’t always save everything you’ve done. So before you do that I suggest just tapping on a different text field when you’ve finished whatever you've been writing and wait for the saving thing to come up and completely go away.
Idk if it’s Ike that for others but I have lost an hour worth of work before figuring it out, so just thought I’d share

Yeah… I have a lot of hacky code to try to get autosaving to work when you leave the page on every browser. Clicking out of a field or clicking a different field to manually trigger autosave is a great suggestion if you have problems with autosave not triggering fast enough when you navigate to another page.
Basically, autosave always triggers whenever your browser's focus leaves any text field. This usually happens automatically whenever you click out of a field, tab to the next one, click any link, etc., and I've spent a lot of time getting the autosave to run as quickly as possible so it can make a full autosave request before, for example, the page navigates away or closes (and once the request is made, the autosave can still happen successfully even if you're already on another page). Depending on your browser, operating system, network speed, etc., this might not always be 100% reliable – and I'm hoping to find a better solution soon. In the meantime, if you find that autosave isn't fast enough for you when you navigate to another page directly from a field, I do recommend clicking out of the field first to make sure an autosave can happen!
@TheColourfulCraftyGemstone Would you mind letting me know what browser you use so I can do more testing on it and make sure autosave works as it should? Thanks!
@andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer) sure! I use safari and sometimes Firefox
Oh goodness, I've been away from the site for a while and these are all things that I had trouble with. Thank you SO MUCH for giving linking a big big boost
