How to change autosave settings in Medieval Engineers

Medieval Engineers controls automatic saves and retained in-game backups from the main dedicated-server configuration.

1. Stop the server and create a panel backup.
2. Open Configuration Files, then use the Text Editor for MedievalEngineers-Dedicated.cfg.

   

3. Set AutoSaveInMinutes to the number of minutes you want between saves.
4. Set MaxBackupSaves to the number of automatic backup saves the game should retain.
5. Click Save & Exit and start the server.

<AutoSaveInMinutes>5</AutoSaveInMinutes>
<MaxBackupSaves>5</MaxBackupSaves>

Five or ten minutes is a practical starting point for most servers. Very short intervals increase disk activity, while long intervals increase the progress that can be lost after an unexpected stop.
